Is that true these days? The airlines aren't allowed to give you a "yes" or "no" answer if somebody made the flight or not????
Airlines may not disclose whether or not a passenger is on a flight regardless of who paid for the flight or made the reservation. The only acception is for unaccompanied minors.
