Vistara’s web check‑in service opens 48 hours before departure and closes 60 minutes before take-off for domestic flights, and 120 minutes (2 hours) before for international routes. This convenient option lets you skip airport queues, choose your seat, and download a boarding pass from home. Printed copies are required for document verification or security checks at the airport.
