Final payment time is almost here. I'm ready to make the payment, but I wanted to find out about EZCheck first. I found the following on page 11 of the Princess "Cruise Answer Book", so I contacted our Travel Agent yesterday to find out what she thought...
"AIRLINE CHECK-IN, MADE EASY (Page 11)
For your return home, breeze through the airline check-in while you are still onboard your Princess ship. EZCheck is a new and revolutionary shipboard airline check-in service. For a nominal fee, we will check you in for your flight and you will be provided with your airline boarding pass and luggage tags on the last night of your cruise. Upon your disembarkation, your luggage will be secured and transferred to the airport and delivered to your airline carrier. You will next see your luggage at the luggage claim area at your final destination (Or earlier, as required by Customs).
Please check with the Passenger Services Desk for a complete list of participating carriers for your disembarkation port. Note that any connecting flights must be scheduled to depart within specified guidelines on the day of disembarkation, and the flight and final destination must be within the United States (Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico included). Rates start at $15 per person and include a maximum of up to two pieces of luggage per person. Rates and carriers may vary from port to port.
To reserve this service in advance of your cruise, contact your Travel Agent or call 1-800-PRINCESS."
This was her reply...
"I thought you had to do this while on the ship, it almost looks like you can do it in advance. I wasn’t able to do it because US Air into my city doesn’t have the service. Let me know your flight information and in the morning we will check to see if it is available for you."
I will let you know what she says today...

My travel agent replied yesterday regarding EZCheck. Here's what she had to say...
"They are telling me SW (Southwest Airlines) doesn’t have it, I don’t think they do but they will put information in your cabin during the cruise telling you what airlines do it.
I doubt SW will have it. Don’t feel bad, I don’t have it either."
So I guess we're out of luck since we're flying home on Southwest. Some of you may have better luck depending on your airline. My TA said you can book EZCheck onboard at the Pursor's desk...
