Let's have a contest to see who has the latest flight with this glitch. I wonder whether it goes out to 330 days.
I have 3 different segments in April, none of the show the OLCI button.

Well, my return from MEX (booked as a separate one-way) is March 13, and, it says I can check-in for THAT.

Next trip is June - and NO check-in button.

Not sure what the big deal is. IT issue. Happens all the time. It will get fixed. If it actually let you check in, I would think it would be a larger issue.

One annoyance is that I must switch from the My Delta view to My Trips to see an itinerary with the button. Will these IT issues compound or remain rather benign?

The Check In button now also shows up for a March 30 domestic trip so I will be curious what it does with my international trips that make up most of the remainder of the year (out of 11 total).

Looks like it's been fixed on the app. I had four trips over the next three weeks that all showed the Check In button, it's now gone for all trips.

My trip to CPH on March 14 had the check in button this morning. Gone now, so I guess they fixed it...

Yes, all of my check-in buttons are gone now.

So, I feel MUCH more confident about Delta's IT now!

So it would appear DL IT has a minor issue.
I have one that still says check in available for next Friday. I guess delta just like davetravels better because of his use of emojis @:-):-:^
