New look to EasyCheck-in Online e-mails
Sometime between Wednesday and today, the EasyCheck-in Online reminder e-mails got a slightly refreshed look. Nothing major, but here are some of the differences I can see:
I also noted the addition of this text to the e-mail:
Overall, seems like a nice (minor) refresh.
- E-mail is from "United ECO ([email protected])" instead of "United Airlines ([email protected])"
- Name, confirmation #, and MP# are at top of email (though my MP# is missing the leading 0's)
- Fewer graphics, and overall the e-mail is much shorter than before
- Direct links to "View entire itinerary" and "Flight status" near details on your flights
I also noted the addition of this text to the e-mail:
No printer? Checking bags?
No problem! Check in online now, and then print your boarding pass and check your bags at the airport.

there are numerous threads where folks have complained about not having a printer, done olci wirelessly from their laptop yet only to find that their seats have changed when they re-print their bp's at the airport and don't have "any proof" of their original bp. with osx, you can "print to a pdf" right from the print dialogue box and i'm wondering if this feature is on the iphone as well (reason-i'm looking at the new iphone
)

No, unfortunately the "print to pdf" functionality from OSX does not exist on the iPhone, at least at present. It's possible to run through the OLCI steps but when you click the "print" button, nothing happens so you still need to visit the chicken at the airport and you have no proof that you've checked in.
