Delta sends BPs to your mobile phone as text messages, not emails. Much better arrangement -- harder to lose in the queue.

Was unable to issue a mobile boarding pass for my flight ex-JFK tomorrow. Sounds like there's an issue with ex-JFK flights. Bizarre to say the least ,as I have never had a problem ex-JFK with MBPs.

On the other hand, if I recall correctly from last time I used a delta Mobile BP, it is static and doesn't update with any changes, delays etc.

Help with mobile boarding pass
This morning I checked in on my phone. The only option for delivery of the boarding pass was email for printing. After I checked in, the email I received had an attachment for printing a paper boarding pass. I went on line with my computer, and the results were the same. I waited 2 hours hoping the mobile boarding pass would appear in the United app in my android phone, but that did not happen either.
What am I doing wrong? How can I get a mobile boarding pass for this evenings flight?

I had a similar issue flying EWR-PBI back in May. Checked in using the iPhone app, but the system wouldn't give me any option other than e-mail or pickup at kiosk. Only possible explanation could be that it was a one-way itinerary, but not sure why that would matter.

PMUA used to be able to do this too, though can't recall if I had this by specifying a mobile number or just my wireless carrier email.

Incorrect. The boarding pass refreshes if you click the 'refresh data' button on the home screen. I don't think it updates departure times, but I know it updates gate info.

Mobile Boarding Pass
Is there something wrong with the mobile boarding pass feature of United's iPhone app? On every check in I have done via the United app for the past couple of weeks I do not get a mobile boarding pass. It only gives me the option of emailing my boarding passes for printing. I used to have no issues.
