Well, they want to roll out that same program to paper boarding passes.
In the name of "security" you'll be sent back to the check-in counter if the boarding pass is folded, bent, or otherwise makes the code illegible by the reader. I see a GIANT cluster-frag in the making. Y'all think things are slow now?
I'd guess I see a couple of folks per-flight where the gate BP readers don't read the codes correctly and the gate agents have to type it in by hand. Gotta be worse with the handheld readers.
(sarcasm on) Oh, well, who cares about delays if they keep us "safe"....
