Vueling Airlines – cancel flight and get a refund

Vueling online check-in

Online check-in is available from up to 4 hours prior to scheduled departure and makes it possible for passengers to select a seat and print their boarding pass or get it on their mobile phone (check the availability of mobile check-in in the airport you are departing from). 

Mobile self-check-in

From up to 4 hours before departure, you can check in, choose your seat, and get your boarding pass via your smartphone or tablet. It is important to check the availability of mobile check-in in the departure airport.

A paper boarding pass can be collected at a check-in machine (if located in the departure airport) or at the airline check-in counter, in case something malfunctions with your mobile boarding pass. This is additionally possible in the event your phone has difficulties, or your boarding pass is deleted.

Vueling flight check-in machines

These machines make it possible for you to check in yourself at the airport. Make sure check-in machines are accessible in the airport you are departing from prior to your flight. With most types of check-in machines, you are able to check in using your passport, or by inputting your last name and the flight booking reference (found in your booking confirmation).

Airline check-in deadlines

To keep flights on time, check-in deadlines are vital. Prior to the deadline you should have your boarding pass, regardless of how you checked in – in person, online, with your mobile phone, or if you were automatically checked in – and baggage must also have been checked in.
