Temporary check-in shifts
From 29 October 2024 to the end of March 2025, extensive construction work will be carried out on the baggage carousels at Check-in 1. This will reduce the availability of the baggage drop-off counters.
This has an impact on the passengers for Swiss International Airlines, Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, AEGEAN, Edelweiss Air, Brussels Airlines, Croatia Airlines so as Vueling and Easy Jet.
Check-in options
At home
Online check-in
To minimise wait times, we recommend checking in before arriving at the airport. Check in online with your airline and save your boarding pass on your mobile phone or print it out. This will ensure you are all prepared to drop off your baggage.
Some airlines provide your baggage tag during the online check-in process to print out at home. This speeds up the baggage drop-off process at the airport.

Check-in the day before
Some airlines allow you to check in and drop off your baggage up to 23 hours before departure. Please check with your airline whether they allow you to check in your baggage the evening before your flight. Your airline provides detailed information about checking in for your flight and dropping off your baggage at the airport.
