Southwest Offers New Check In Proceedure
As reported here as a tip previously, Southwest has wised up and made remote check in a feature, allowing the traveler to print their boarding pass from the kiosks.
Travelers flying Southwest Airlines can now use their wireless computer connection to check-in for a flight, cancel boarding passes and obtain other flight information.
Any customer with a confirmed reservation and access to a wireless system with a web browser can take advantage of the new service by going to www.southwest.com or mobile.southwest.com via bizjournals.com.

The above statements are not completely true. Twenty four hr check in available on line for those with electronic tickets only. I bought six paper tickets via SW vacations. They are considered paper tickets and not eligible for advanced zone consideration unless you get to the airport “four hrs” ahead. But you still are at a disadvantage with the electronic online guys that have a head start. No more of my money goes to SW vacations.
