But other than that, not too difficult a process...just scanned BP, tag printed at the desk and agent tagged and sent it on the way. Can't speak for where the crowds might be Thurs. morning.

Honestly, I'd go back to Premier next time. While the line at shortcut wasn't particularly long (line at Y check in was way, way, way, way worse), Premier is typically faster (though you have to tag yourself at SFO), and also much closer to CLEAR/PreCheck/Premier security.
Did you get your MilePlay bonus? I did it Monday and bonus expired yesterday and it only said I completed the check-in, not the bag drop. I'm not sure who to contact.
