Are all the LH passengers (see post from malgudi just above) going to miss their flights?

Joking aside, I assume this is just teething troubles. Things will settle down.
I dunno--pretty standard looking boarding pass. I still have it somewhere in that trip paperwork so I'll see if I can take another look.

They didn't use the scanners at all--one look at us and the BP sticking out of our passports and waived us over to Indigo.

We weren't the only person to miss this flight as we met someone from Australia who was on the same previous flight connecting to our same flight. She got rebooked for the evening flight and that's the same one we were able to get on.

I dunno about that--TII (This is India!)
