RAK airport offers 'easy check-in' from hotels

Ras Al Khaimah International Airport has announced the opening of ‘easy check-in services’ at hotel DoubleTree by Hilton Ras Al Khaimah, in line with the emirate’s commitment to providing ease of travel for its visitors.

This new service is the first of its kind to become available for travellers in the UAE and will be rolled out soon in other prominent hotels and commercial venues across the Emirate.

The new easy check-in service will allow passengers to check-out from their hotel and directly check-in to their flight before leaving the hotel lobby. All the check-in services provided at the airport will be available for passengers at the hotel reception, including boarding passes and baggage transportation to the airport. After completing the check-in process, passengers will report straight to Immigration desk at Departure terminal making their journey even smoother and more relaxing.

Commenting on the introduction of the services, Sanjay Khanna, chief executive officer, Ras Al Khaimah International Airport, said: “I like to think that travel – be it business or leisure – is about collecting memorable experiences. It’s about understanding the audience mindset and determining what will truly enhance their overall experience. We are constantly looking to delight our visitors with services and offers that they can only experience in Ras Al Khaimah and our new easy check-in service is a great example of this.”
