1. This is standard practice - you just check in with your e-tickets and will be given your boarding pass. If your visit is short, you will also be given the actual return tickets also. Just saw another answer - you cannot use the "quick check in" machines on a transatlantic flight. You would do the regular check in at the airline counter
2. E-ticket or a paperless ticket, call a few days ahead to confirm and get a good seat selection. Check in at the normal check in counter or use one of those quick check in machines (with or without luggage). A photo id will be required.
3. Traveling with e-tickets is esentially have a reservation and ticket without the need to carry actually paper tickets. All you should do is have a copy of your itinerary as a back-up and just show up a little early since it is your first time with e-tickets.
