Sorry, but am I the only one that now has a vision of F3G, sat in the departure lounge, beaming around proudly, with 1A stuck on his forehead!
Don't give KM any ideas stamping seat number on the forehead is probably a lot less expensive than printing boarding passes

the departure lounge[
What's that? Is that where all the unwashed sit?

One warning...try to snatch that boarding card out of my hand and I will snatch it back and read it top to bottom, front to back, whilst smiling inncocently at you! And you'll be amazed at how slowly I can read!
You'll be amazed how much service I need after long waits

Am I correct in believing that a US carrier tried 'e' boarding using barcodes on mobile phone text messages rather than printed boarding cards? How would that work at the aircraft door?
I will be using this system with Lufthansa tomorrow; some other countries have different procedures to the UK - try showing the LH CC your BP and you get a reaction that varies from a polite decline to rolling eyes.
