China Eastern checking at Del
Good day all. I have a question we are flying Del to pvg and the flight leaves at 3am. Instead of a hotel we just planned on just hanging out in the plaza line w as long as we can before. MU only has 1 flight a day from Del. How early do you think checking would open so we can just hang out and rest in the lounge max time before the flight. Thanks

My experience in DEL was that check-in agents start to arrive at the counter 2.5-3 hours before.
For 2 times I arrived with a domestic flight, around 8pm. I can tell it's a real long wait in the check-in area, nothing to do or see and
nowhere to sit....tried it
Avoid arriving early! Just 5 minutes by taxi there is a nice Radisson with 24 hour serviced lobby bar. If you're daring enough you can head down stairs for a quick "free" shower. But beware of staff checking for non-hotel guests
