Passengers can check in for their Wideroe flights up to 22 hours prior to the departure of their flight. At the same time as they are checking in online, passengers can also choose or change where they are seated on the flight. Passengers should make sure to do this at least 1 hour before their flight leaves. After this, online check-in closes. Once checked in successfully, passengers can print out their boarding card. Groups of up to 6 people can be checked in at the same time. Mobile check-in is also available for Wideroe flights and can be done either via a mobile browser or by using the airline's app. If they wish, passengers can check in at the airport by using a self-service kiosk or going to a check-in counter.
