Paperless Boarding Passes
Continental Airlines has teamed with the Transportation Security Administration to offer encrypted bar codes that passengers present at the gate on their cell phones. The pilot program is currently only offered to passengers departing the George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Houston, Texas. Will this eliminate paper boarding passes? Although cell phones seem ubiquitous these days, I doubt this transition will happen quickly. And, I don't know about you, but my crackberry has failed me in times of need plenty; I'd be hard pressed to rely solely upon it to board a plane.
