Check-in at Basel-Mulhouse Airport: French or Swiss side?

Netty971 · 2020-09-06

Hi there,

I need to get to Mulhouse Airport. I’m flying with EASYJET for the first time. On my ticket, it says check-in on the Swiss side, but I’m heading to Bordeaux. I’ve never been to Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport before.

Could you tell me exactly where I need to check in—French side or Swiss side?

Thanks for your help!

Hi there.

This airport is "binational."

Hi Annette,

If you arrive on the French side, it’s really "easy" to cross over to the Swiss side. You won’t lose much time!

Thanks, Chris. But you didn’t tell me where I should check in—on the French side or the Swiss side. Logically, since I’m going to Bordeaux, I should check in on the French side.

The destination doesn't matter. At CDG, you can check in for domestic and European flights in the same place, right?

You’ll need to check in where your airline has its counter—on the Swiss side, as shown on your ticket.

Thanks for the clarification. That’s much clearer.

Hi Annette,

Everything for EasyJet is on the Swiss side at Basel-Mulhouse!

Hello,

I need to go to Mulhouse airport. I’m traveling with EASYJET for the first time. On my ticket, it says check-in on the Swiss side, even though I’m heading to Bordeaux. I’m not familiar with the Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg airport at all.

Could you tell me exactly where I need to check in—French side or Swiss side?

Thanks for your reply,

Hi, I know this message is old, but I’m in the same situation—departing from Basel on the Swiss side to go to Bordeaux, and I’d like to know if a valid ID is enough to travel. Thanks for your feedback
