'Online check-in unavailable' - May be due to traveling with an infant, special baggage, or needing special assistance; proceed to airport check-in. 3. 'Connecting flight check-in issues' - If connecting with partner airlines (KLM, Air France, Etihad, Delta), check-in opens 30 hours before the partner flight's departure.
