about to fly, online check-in and downloading the qr code and boarding pass to my phone (feddit.de)

This post is going to sound very similar to my last one, but now I only want to make sure I can check-in online from my desktop, download both the qr code and boarding pass as a pdf file to my phone and then either board the plane showing my phone with the pdf boarding pass to the agent or use my phone and the pdf qr code with the kiosk to print the boarding pass and board the plane.

I got all steps right, right?

Everything I can do with the airline app in my phone I can do with my desktop, right? The airline app is the same website with a different format, it doesn't give me anything special, right?

Sounds all good, yes. That's generally the way I do it, except I prefer to also grab a paper boarding pass at one of those automated kiosks at the airport. Like the others said: The QR code should be enough on its own, though.

If you have luggage to check in, you show them your boarding pass, so that it can be registered to your ticket.

Depending on where you are, you might need a valid ID with you. USA is a PITA that way. Here in Europe you can usually fly without ID, as long as it's domestic.

Tip: If your ticket includes it, you can probably select seat in advance so you're not stuck in a middle seat at the back. Preferences vary, but I prefer a window seat as far in front as possible.
