To support more consistent, on-time departures and a smoother airport experience for our guests, we updated our gate-closure timing and domestic check-in cut off times earlier this year. Please remind your clients of these times before they travel.

• Effective March 31, gate-closure timing on the 737 and Q400 fleets moved from 10 minutes to 15 minutes before departure.
• Effective April 28, domestic check-in and checked baggage cut-off times moved from 45 minutes to 60 minutes before departure. Please note: There was no change to the international check-in close time.
