EasyCheck-in Online Now Available Worldwide
CHICAGO, August 01, 2008 - New enhancements to EasyCheck-in Online (ECO) now allow customers to check in online for all United and United Express flights worldwide, a significant step toward putting our customers more in control of their travel and helping to ease their way through the airport.
Previously, customers could use online check-in only for flights departing from the United States .
The enhancements include the ability for customers to check in via their local United sites in: Argentina , Australia , Belgium , Brazil , Canada , China , Japan , France , Germany , Guatemala , Hong Kong , Mexico , the Netherlands , Singapore and the United Kingdom . International online check-in now enables the following:
- Economy Plus and Premium Cabin upgrade
- Passenger information collection (e.g. passport number)
- Upgrade awards
- Flight changes
- Alternate flight selection during irregular operations
- Round-trip check-in if the return trip is within 24 hours
- Group check-in
Some international airport authorities will not accept an ECO boarding pass for access through the security checkpoint. In those cases, ECO will still check in customers and direct them to reprint their boarding passes at the airport. In those cases, there is still a benefit to using ECO, including the ability to upgrade, purchase Economy Plus and pay service fees online, allowing more time at the airport to clear security.
