Quote "You may want to go back and read the post properly. I said and I quote "The ID expiry check"
At the time when I worked at STN, FR didn't have online check in and still don't for many of their routes, so the expiry check will be carried out at check in and not at the gate."
I stand by my remarks that the Passport/ID check is done at the gate & Must include the expiry date, it is simple to do. INET is here now for all FR routes (according to Joanna Brady) & will cause larger issues as it becomes more popular, FR are sending out more hand baggage sizers/scales for use at the gates & that will be another thing to have to contend with, secret is though to get a holding lounge & call the pax as the aircraft is on finals. Re the excess charges I think FR will not be happy to think that your not charging fully for excess (by the way our flights are full & we still charge for excess & close on time. the system works if the staff are well trained) & eventually you will be taken to task about it, we were a few years ago!!!
Passengers
will stand aside if asked & yes we check in pax of all differant nationalities & the Chinese are currently the worse regarding hand baggage, we've had staff assaulted at the gate by a Chinese women who dared to stop here and asked for excess.
This 10 minute boarding, did it include pulling the B/cards & inputting them into the system? I still cannot see how that was done without help!!
Hope you read this before leaving shift & here's your dummy that you spat out. Night Night
