Do This First When Get Your Boarding Pass
/Boarding Pass Hacks You Didn’t Know
When you receive your boarding pass for your next trip, whether it’s an electronic boarding pass on your phone or a paper boarding pass you printed out to present at the airline counter, do this before you do anything else to make your travel smoother and hassle free.
If you happen to use an electronic boarding pass, the first thing to do after you receive it is to take a screenshot of your boarding pass. Then when you go to the airport, head over to a kiosk or airline counter and ask them to print you a paper copy.
If you use a paper boarding pass, after receiving one at the airport or at your home out of your printer, take a picture first on your phone camera so you have a digital copy of the same boarding pass.
The reason you want to have any or all of the above is to protect yourself. Your electronic boarding pass may not work when you lose your signal or WiFi on your phone, especially when you are transferring in foreign countries.
You don’t want to get stuck at security or at the boarding gate because your phone network is not working. A picture of the boarding pass or a paper copy will save you if the worst happens.
When you are using a paper boarding pass, it may get lost or damaged. Having a digital copy of it on your phone could save your entire trip.
