Martin.


There have been a number of times when I've printed it out and then
someone at the airport has ignored it and reprinted it.


I have been without a printer for some years and previously I would
email my ticket to a friend to have it printed out for me. But for
the last several years, I just go to the airport, swipe my credit card
in the kiosk machine and it prints out my boarding pass. Never had to
show anything like an e-ticket I had printed out to anyone.
