Eventually, 359 got delayed, too but I managed to get onto 347 which took off 80 minutes late. Saved by pre-check.

So, beware changing flights and electronic bp. Better to have printed version just get through security.

I use the emailed version of my mobile BP and save the image to my photo deck. This works on iOS. I assume that something similar would be available on android.

Cheers.

Yes. I've done that in the past & now aver to be less lazy in the future. I've come to the conclusion that RELYING on the app is not smart. It can be too fickle.
