What do you show the security guys when you go through security?

A pdf copy of the boarding pass on an Ipad is enough?

Please share your experiences. My interest is to use the service in Miami. Anyone with Miami experience, please share.
Thanks
Hi ticu,

The paperless boarding pass is easy to do. I use it on my iphone frequently--It is designed to work on a mobile phone device, the ipad wouldn't work. Also - Make sure it is a paperless boarding document from the airline. Not just any PDF of a confirmation, etc. will work. For example, when I check in to a UA, DL, etc. flight, I have the option of printing a pass or being emailed a mobile boarding pass. You're airline should have the same option basically. You should confirm with them if they do mobile boarding passes and at which airports. Not every airport accepts them.
