Security document issued for connection
I've read similar posts about receiving a boarding pass at the gate, with just a security document available when checking in online. However, in this instance, boarding passes are available for the originating flight, but not the connection.
I checked the website, but none of WN's scenarios for a boarding pass issued at the gate seem to apply, in this instance. A parent and four year old child are flying under the same PNR. Boarding numbers were assigned for the first leg, but not the second. They will use family boarding.
This is not the first time they are flying together on WN.
It looks like there is one unsold seat on the second leg.
Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Not sure what time the check-in happened, but the last few boarding positions (10-15 or so) are held for assignment at the gate. It's possible that the first flight isn't full or they checked in before this condition was met, but the second flight had already issued boarding positions to this point.

That's probably the answer.
Thanks!
