Do I need to print my ticket after checking in online? Generally, passengers do not need to print a paper ticket after a successful online check-in; instead, they can use the electronic boarding pass on their phone. If you have checked baggage, you must go to the check-in counter to follow the airline's procedures.
1. Do passengers need to print their ticket after checking in online?
After completing the online check-in process, it is not mandatory to print a paper boarding pass. Currently, all domestic and international airlines accept electronic boarding passes displayed directly on your smartphone screen. However, there are some special cases where passengers who have checked in online still need to go to the check-in counter to obtain a physical boarding pass, including:
Passengers who are children between 02 and 12 years old.
Passengers whose names match a restricted flight list.
After a successful online check-in, passengers can use an electronic boarding pass for quick processing instead of printing a paper ticket.

3. What should I do after checking in online?
After clarifying whether you need to print your ticket, many passengers wonder what to do next. In fact, the subsequent steps depend on whether you have checked baggage. Specifically, you should head straight to security if you have no luggage, drop your luggage at the counter if you do, keep your boarding pass saved, and always carry your ID.
If you do not have checked baggage: You do not need to queue at the traditional check-in counter. Instead, you can proceed directly to the airport security checkpoint. Notably, under the new regulations effective from December 1st, for domestic flights, you can log in to your VNeID account (level 2), access the "Check-in online" section to perform data synchronization and biometric eKYC, which makes moving through security and boarding gates very fast, taking only a few seconds.
If you have checked baggage: You must still take your luggage to the "Drop bag" counter or the airline's standard check-in counter at the airport so staff can weigh it and attach baggage tags before you proceed to the security area.
Prepare your electronic boarding pass: Don't forget to take a screenshot of your boarding pass QR/barcode or save it to your digital wallet. This allows you to easily present it to security staff and boarding gate agents even if the airport has a lost internet connection or weak 4G signal.
Prepare identification documents: Even though modern technology systems are highly advanced, you should still carry your original national ID card or passport in case your personal device encounters issues (out of battery, damaged screen) or if the system requires direct verification.
Passengers should still prepare all necessary identification documents in case their personal device encounters issues.
