Much better to print them out BEFORE you go to the airport.
If you wait until you get to the airport then you may find that their self-check-in facilities are not working so you can't print out the pass. Or sometimes there's an immense queue to use those machines.
Even when you can get the passes emailed to your phone and then loaded onto a phone pass wallet app, it's still best to print out the boarding passes before you arrive at the airport just as a back up measure.
You will receive a fight confirmation number when you book the flight, and you can either check in online and receive a boarding pass that you can print out 24 hours or less before your flight, or you can print it out at the airport using that confirmation number.
The first thing that I do is park my car.
You have to have a boarding pass to get through security and get on the plane. You can print it at home, check in online and have it on your smartphone, print it at a kiosk in the lobby (if the airline has them), or wait in line and check in with an agent and have them hand you the boarding pass.
If you have never flown before, don't do either of the first two, unless you are flying a budget airline that charges you to check in at the airport or if you are flying Southwest (they don't assign seats and the order you board is based off of when you check in--even then, you can reprint the boarding pass at the airport). This is especially true if you are checking bags.
I usually have a dump. There's a lot of standing around and drinking coffee to come.

- How much should a decent round trip airline ticket cost? A round trip airline ticket from Columbus, Ohio to Orlando, Florida, flying coach or economy? I don't fly enough to know a genuinely good price from a "too good to be true" or too expensive. Trying to decide whether it's worth it to just drive.
- Do you know why some stores at airport ask for boarding pass? Do you know why some stores at airport ask for boarding pass when buying stuff even chocolates, candies or foods? That happened to me when I was in Amsterdam airport.
- Why do some people who book Frontier wait till they get to the airport to pay for checkin luggage when it's more than when you pay online? Like you have a small fee online. If you wait till you're at the airport it's a bigger fee. Are these people irrational?
