Until UA went to e-certs, this practice was common.

Many times they wouldn't collect the cert. Many times they asked for another cert (at connection point). Since changing to e-certs, it makes for a more transparent system.

They take it electronically. And if they ask for too many, you can call Mileage Plus and get them to re-deposit the extra one.

Don't blame the people. Blame the system.

Happened to me once in FRA. I had checked in the same morning in GVA on an LH flight. I wasn't asked for a cert at the gate (slipped my mind at the time), but the lead agent tracked me down before pushback looking for the cert.

Had this happen twice to me, although both times I was on the connecting flight and had already given up the cert on the originating flight. Both times, I had already explained the situation when showing my BP.

Second time, the GA was exceedingly rude. :td:
