You can now print out your BOARDING PASS prior to leaving home base via your desktop PC. This seemed like a good way to shorten the process. In theory you can by-pass a crowded ticket counter and bee-line for the gate.

Eaten by the moving stairs. Note to self: Use heavy bond paper in the printer next time…
