And I was always told, that if I do not show at plane after getting boarding pass, my luggage will be thrown off. When this rule was cancelled?
It has not been cancelled. But some regions are more diligent than others. For example, somewhere in that very region we had to search for and take off two bags, because of a no-show. Four minutes later:
Ground: "Ok, bags are off"
Flight: "Hmmm. How did you manage that, without opening the hold...?"
