I just booked the late afternoon departure. Would have been too tired for the rest of the day if i had to wake up at 4.30am.

Has anyone tried internet check-in for Newcastle?

Also does anyone know if WebAward flights are changeable once you are at your destination? Say if i wanted to catch an earlier flight back. Do they charge money or points?

Would i have to do it through the Helpdesk or through the airport?

Also if i am flying with a friend for whom i booked the ticket on my points, do i still get select seating (if it exsists?) Does he?

Can both of us check in at the WBC/elite counters even if i am the only Elite member but both of us are on the same booking ref?
