Comments on: Cell phone as boarding pass

Continental is testing a new system that allows passengers to have a boarding pass sent directly to their cell phone, eliminating the need for a printed version.

Airport security

The one hiccup... is that travelers are required to have their cell phone pass through the X-Ray machine at security while at the same time, they're asked to show their boarding pass.

Sounds like its going to be fun...

Been there done that....

Air Canada already does this.

Made in Japan?

Unless I am mistaken, the Japanese have been doing this sort of thing with movie admissions for at least five years. This is why my eyes roll upward whenever I hear an American talk about "innovation." Americans specialize in talking about innovation; other countries specialize in innovating!

Now if it could only make a decent meal

Anything that can make flying easier is welcome... I still remember
when it was downright fun instead of martyrdom.
