Check in baggage with
Alaska Airlines

 

Use the Alaska Airlines app to check in & label your baggage.

Please note that this is a phased rollout and that it is currently only available to Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan Elite members and credit cardholders. 

During this initial phase, the use of electronic bag tags for their passengers will be further optimised. Alaska Airlines’ BAGTAG services will be available to all guests early 2023 and will function on all Alaska Airlines marketed flights operated by Alaska Airlines, Horizon Air, and SkyWest Airlines in the United States.

Step 01

When using the BAGTAG for the first time, you must enable the ‘electronic bag tag’ function in the Alaska Airlines app. This step looks different for iOS and Android.

iOS: Go to the Alaska Airlines app settings on your phone and turn on the ‘Use Electronic Bag Tag’ function.

Android: Go to the menu in the Alaska Airlines app, select ‘settings’ and turn on the ‘electronic bag tag’ function.

Step 02

Check in your bag

Start the process by navigating to your flight in the Alaska Airlines app. After that, go to the ‘electronic bag tag’ option and select ‘update bag tag’ to start checking in your bag and create an electronic label. 

Step 03

Tag your bag

Enter your e-mail address and proceed. Your e-mail address is only
used for sending a confirmation about your bag tag.

Choose ‘check in’ to create your bag tag and activate the BAGTAG by following the steps in the app.

After updating, the Alaska Airlines app shows you the essential information that should be found on the tag’s display. Please check and confirm that the display and the information match. If you notice any discrepancies, or if the transfer has not been successful, you can start a new transfer attempt.

Step 04

Drop off at the airport

Your bag is now ready for its flight. All you have to do is drop off your baggage at the airport at any self-service bag drop machine
or a staffed check-in counter.

Enjoy your trip!
