British Airways extends early bag drop-off at Gatwick Airport

British Airways extends early bag drop-off at Gatwick Airport
British Airways customers will soon be able to take advantage of an extended early bag check-in service at Gatwick Airport.

Until now, passengers have had the option to drop off their bag the day before their flight if their departure was scheduled before 15:15 the next day.

When British Airways' winter schedule gets underway on October 25th, however, the airline will allow travellers to check in hold luggage between 16:00 and 22:00 for all flights set to leave Gatwick Airport the following day.

Customers will therefore have the option to drop their bag off the day before they travel, use the carrier's online check-in service and head straight to the departure lounge when they arrive at the airport.

The early bag check-in option has already proved popular and the extension of the service is expected to be welcomed by passengers.

British Airways operates flights to Barcelona, Rome, New York and several other destinations from Gatwick Airport.
