You must waste too much time if you did miss the airplane several times, many people had unpleasant experiences for the complicated check-in procedures and handling the baggage check-in issue or waiting in a long-line when checking in. There is no need to wait if we can do everything by ourselves, even we can calculate the time more accurately.
