I’m interested in buying rather cheap E tickets from China airlines that goes from my location to Taiwan and then to Singapore.
I have a few concerns though, and I hope someone can answer me with. I’m not taking any luggage with me, just a carry on.
Well first off, I’ve never used e tickets, but I heard they’re more convenient, and all you need is your credit card or ID, and you can even skip through checking/check in by checking in online. But here’s my question: Don’t you still have to go through check in, in order to obtain boarding passes, wouldn’t you have to go through check in anyway?
My next question, is after the whole check in procedure, do you have to check in at the connecting airport if you’re only bringing a carry on?
Or are you given boarding passes from your start so the moment you’ve arrived at your connecting airport, you can just find your gate and wait to go?

sometimes you can printed your boarding pass online sometimes
even 24 hours ahead of the flight then you can bring , id and passport
to the security /passport control (it depends on the airport
if you were leaving from a US airport you would go straight to the security check /screening area (where they would check your ID and “ticket or boarding pass” then go to the gate yiu still have to tell the airline you
are there! (so they dont cancel your reservation)
If your airlines allow you to check in online you can print your boarding passes at the same time. Most give you boarding passes for all legs of the trip.
You need not check in at the connecting airport if you’ve been checked through and gotten boarding passes for both your original and connecting flights. If not, you will.
There will be a special e-check in counter or kiosks in some airports for people who have already “checked in” online. You’ll receive both of your boarding passes at the counter or kiosk and then go to your gate. When you arrive in Taipei, you’ll only need to transit and clear security from the arrivals area to the departure area and find your gate. Besides clearing security there is no other check-in or formalities as you will already have your boarding pass, just go to your gate. Good luck.
