I'm sure the policy allowing BPs to be printed well in advance is neither new nor infrequently used. I've managed to have them printed at the airport a day in advance with no hassles. Most of the system glitches and encounters with confused staff tend to befall an inordinately small number of travellers, I find.

Sorry for replying months later. It's easy to 'add to wallet' your electronic boarding passes and simply scroll through successive BPs at the gate. You need not be on the same PNR at all. My better half and I often travel together and scan one phone, swipe and re-scan, with an "I'm with her" nod to the agent.
