Many easyJet passengers can now beat check-in queues amid warnings and complaints from other travellers.
The airline will allow those jetting off in the early hours to check in their bags the night before, allowing them to avoid some queues ahead of departure. Passengers can drop bags off between 6pm and 9pm if flying before 8.30am the following day.
easyJet said: "Beat the morning rush. If you have an early morning flight, you can drop off your hold bags the evening before and save time the next day.

"Just head to our Bag Drop area during the hours below, with your passport and boarding passes, and we’ll take care of the rest. Your bags will be ready to collect when you arrive at your destination."
easyJet offers the "twilight" service seven days a week at Manchester Airport, as well as others including London Gatwick and Bristol - though the times may vary depending on where you're flying from.
Manchester Airport currently advises all passengers to check with airlines when they should get to the airport - and asks that nobody arrives more than three hours before their flight is due to take off.
The airport's website also now provides estimated security wait times in real time, for each Terminal (1, 2 and 3). At the time of publication the estimated times were as follows:
- Terminal 1: 0-15 minutes
- Terminal 2: 0-15 minutes
- Terminal 3: 0-15 minutes
