Confirms 4.5-hour check-in rule for people at 12 UK airports - full list

Jet2 has confirmed a “twilight check-in” option for passengers departing from 12 UK airports, allowing luggage drop-off the evening before travel for flights scheduled before midday. The airline says travelers must arrive at least two hours before their flight to collect boarding passes and drop luggage, while the twilight window lets them avoid check-in lines on departure day. The service runs within a 4.5-hour period the night before, with bag drop between 4:30 pm and 9:00 pm. Passengers can use it only if their trip departs before midday from one of the listed airports, including Manchester. Check-in online can be done anytime from 28 days up to 24 hours before departure via Jet2’s website or app, and one person can drop off up to six passengers’ bags.
