Check-in for Delta flights via Facebook

CLEVELAND - Delta is the first airline to allow you to check-in for your flight through a Facebook app called Delta Ticket Counter .

There is no need to go to Delta’s website to download or print your boarding pass.

In August, Delta began to offer flight booking through its Facebook app. The flight check-in is the latest feature for the app.

You’ll also be able to share your itinerary right from the app with friends or family instead of having to email it separately.

While convenient, it raises questions about privacy. While it’s great to update friends on your whereabouts, status updates have been suspected in home break-ins. Just make sure any app you use truly makes your life easier, and doesn’t post anything on your wall making it easier for criminals to know your whereabouts or know too much about you.
