When you check in at the airport you will get luggage tags and you will drop off your bags. If you are checking in with a person, they will put the tags on the bags and usually take the bags (at some airports, sometimes you may have to take the bags to a different location nearby).

Even if you check-in online, you will need to get the luggage tags printed either from a person or a self-serve kiosk.

When you get to the airport there should be a kiosk that will allow you to print out the stickers or tags for the bags.

If not a kiosk then there should be a station where you see people handing over their luggage and just simply go there and have them print it out and give them the bag.

Many airports have what are curbside check in. Don't let the name throw you off. If there's no line, and someone is there, you can bring your luggage to them. Just have your boarding pass and your id ready. They usually just confirm it is you that is traveling and then they will put a destination tag on your bag(s). If they don't have curbside check in, just go inside and go to your airlines ticketing area. Usually there are kiosks you can use to print up the destination tags. Then just bring them to the designated area. It will be clearly marked. You will need your boarding pass and id here as well. After you drop it off, you can proceed to go through TSA.

Take them to the airline check-in area in the airport to drop them off
