Yes, my profile is up to date. In the past, TXL had no bag drop counter at the DL gate, so I had to see the agent anyway. Therefore it was never a huge time saver for my outbound but I would have loved it for the inbounds from SAT or AUS. Now they do have bag drops, so I hope this wasn't just a lucky glitch.

It seems even the kiosks are working on international trips now. When I scanned my BP yesterday the kiosk was NOT showing "Please see agent" right away but I got a menu with things I can do ...
