I like having my BP and going straight to the gate, though I am somewhat reknowned for leaving it on the printer in the office heading out to the airport. Or moving into one of the newly available seats at check-in (less of an issus on B6). As for never having a seat reassigned, it can always happen on any carrier for whatever reason the GA wants, and though not more likely on B6 than any others, it is somewhat less likely for checked in passengers.
The reprint option seems so easy and straightforward a process that it is surprising to me how much trouble B6 is having with it, regardless of the extra codes on a ticket.
