Also, curious: does anyone still use the duplicate red carbon ticket stock in this day? I don't think I've seen that for years now! </font>
I guess you haven't been to Vietnam lately. And as an added bonus, upon handing in your red carbon tissue-paper ticket to check in for a VN flight, you receive a handwritten boarding pass, on which they sometimes don't even bother to write your name. Fortunately, Vietnam is currently one of the safest countries in the world, so I suppose it's no problem.
