He could just use my boarding passes (I'd even get the EB points) and we would save the name change fees.
Am I missing something (besides the immoral aspects and the minimal risk of being found out)? I'm aware SK wouldn't approve and the practice is possibly illegal, so mods feel free to close thread it doesn't comply with community standards.
If he has an SK boarding pass for CPH-ARN and the ticketed name is for the same perceived sex as the person using the boarding pass, then it generally doesn’t get stopped.
