Yes, when you check-in online for your flight, you usually receive your boarding pass. It can be downloaded as a PDF, sent to your email, or made available through the airline's mobile app. This enables you to skip the check-in queues at the airport and proceed directly to security (if you're traveling with carry-on luggage only) or to the baggage drop-off point (if you have checked luggage). Ensure that your boarding pass is accessible on your device or printed out before arriving at the airport.
