Online Check In for Southwest with a printer Question

I don't wish to get involved in whether this should be allowed or not; I just need non-biased info. Thanks in advance!

MY DH will be returning home from a trip on Sunday. He will not have access to a computer to check in online or nor to print boarding pass for his Southwest flight.

My question is this:
Can I check him in online here at home and not print his passes. And then Will he be able to print his passes at airport when he arrives?

This is done of course to get A passes.

Thanks...

Title of Post should have been "withOUT" a printer. Sorry

Another question: he will be in EST and I will be in MST;
I can check him in on Saturday at 6:15am MST for his 8:15am EST flight Sunday -- Is that correct? Or do I have to wait until it is 8:15 am MST?

Thanks.,,

24 hour before flight time. If it's a 8:15am departure on the east coast, then it's 8:15am EST, 6:15am MST the day before when you can check-in.

Get up early.

Another option if you don't want to get up too early is to have him check himself in on his phone. Just go to mobile.southwest.com on the cell phone and you can check in and print out the boarding pass at the airport.

It can be done. We were without a printer 2 weeks ago, had our daughter at home check us in and printed our passes at the airport. Good to know about the mobile phone option.
