Forgive me if I haven't searched sufficiently for this topic...

We know that as of early next year, passengers won't be allowed beyond security without a boarding pass. This means that the gate will only be printed new boarding cards.

What does this mean for those of us who never leave the secure area before heading back to home base (whether on a MR or on a business trip)?

Surely the gates and the clubs will still be equipped to check passengers in.

Will passengers be required to exit the secure area and check in at the front ticket counter?
