Check-In is the procedures for a Hotel guest's arrival and registration.

In the context of travel, transport, and hotels, check-in refers to the process of registering for a flight, train, or hotel stay and obtaining a boarding pass or room key.

The check-in process is usually done before departure or upon arrival at the hotel.

Examples of check-in in the travel, transport, and hotel context include:

• Airline check-in, where passengers provide identification, check in their luggage and receive their boarding pass at the airport prior to their flight.
• Train check-in, where passengers provide identification, check in their luggage and receive their boarding pass at the train station prior to their train journey.
• Hotel check-in, where guests provide identification, fill in registration forms and receive their room key upon arrival at the hotel.
• Car rental check-in, where customers provide identification, sign rental agreements and receive their rental car keys.
• Cruise ship check-in, where passengers provide identification, check in their luggage and receive their boarding pass upon arrival at the port.

Check-in is an essential step in the travel, transport, and hotel industry, as it helps to ensure that the necessary information is collected and that the customer is properly registered for their flight, train, hotel stay, or rental car. It also allows customers to verify that their reservations are correct and to make any necessary changes.
