I see. So the original point of embarkation isn't there? It must be if
this is a direct flight. If not a direct flight, it will be marked
where it was issued and the original ticket stub will be attached. And
it will likely be physically different in appearance if issued in
Singapore rather than somewhere else.



Bull. Folks have appeared in here to tell you by their first hand
experience that it is not as you say.





We were talking about the re-check in procedure you say has been
introduced at Changi since autumn 2001.

Who has said that the boarding pass is not identifiable? Other than
you?



It is true that this boarding pass
of mine has nothing to do with Singapore. But is a direct flight (as you
assume) from AMS to HEL (I was changing planes after a direct flight
from MEX to AMS).



If it is a direct flight then you have one and only one boarding pass.
It will be separated into the pass and your stub when you board the
first time. It will be rather obvious to Immigration in Singapore if
you show that stub rather than the full boarding pass.

If you have connecting flights then the second boarding pass is
clearly marked as to where it can from.



You have been told

So, those who fly by one flight code (hardly available) from MEX via
AMS to HEL, will be routinely re-checked if they leave the transit area
at Schiphol while those who get their two boarding passes for a flight
from MEX to AMS and for another flight from AMS to HEL both at Mexico
City airport won't be checked ? Is this anyhow reasonable ?



Read above. Both will be checked when they enter Immigration. You
*MUST* show your boarding pass.



For the shakes of security it is all different if KLM records show that
I have two pieces of boarding passes printed at one location from the
records which indicate that I have one boarding pass printed at the same
location (and for the same route) ?



Immigration will not look at the KLM record. They will look at the
piece of paper you have. If they have questions or problems with it
then they may look at airline records. If the record shows you left
baggage in the transit area while you actually left transit you will
be checked.


Left baggage in the transit area while you are somewhere else... you
will be checked? I don't follow. Where in the transit area you leave
your luggage when you are going to town?
