Exclamation Consolidated "Thermal Paper Boarding Pass Discussion" Thread [Merged]

I don't think I've seen this posted yet (please delete/lock if its a dup)

I checked in at IAD using the 1K line over labor day weekend and got a flimsy white boarding pass. Talking with the agent, she said they just got a new printer and everyone will soon only get the white cards, no more gold/blue colors. I noticed that other stations were still giving out the gold/blue cards (I was tempted to stop and ask them to reprint mine).

The paper was the flimsy stuff that used to come out of all EZ Check in machines ... I figure the ink will last maybe a month on those things for anyone that likes to save your bps. There was a definite cheap feel to the bp - I hope she's wrong and its a temporary thing at that one station. Anyone else hear of a change to bp stock?
