Automatic Flight Check-In from Email
The agent monitors your email for flight confirmations, runs through the airline's check-in process at the earliest possible time, and automatically selects your preferred seat.
Never miss the check-in window again. This OpenClaw automation watches your inbox and handles airline check-in the moment it opens.
How It Works
1. Email Monitoring: Agent scans incoming emails for flight confirmation patterns
2. Flight Tracking: Extracts flight number, date, and check-in window
3. Scheduled Check-In: Sets a timer to run at exactly the check-in opening time (usually 24 hours before departure)
4. Browser Automation: Navigates the airline's website, enters your details
5. Seat Selection: Picks your preferred seat (window/aisle, front/back) based on pre-configured preferences
6. Confirmation: Sends you a message with your boarding pass
Why This Matters
- Airlines often assign middle seats to late check-ins
- Check-in windows open at inconvenient times (often 24h before, which might be 3 AM)
- Business travelers with multiple flights per week save significant hassle
