In most of my cases,
1. Booking reference number + First + Last name worked when printing at kiosk.
2. Passport just works at the drop baggage counter which provides
boarding passes.
3. For #2, just need to wait in queue, which took 5 minutes for me at
Montreal and 5 minutes at Mumbai.

That's precisely what happened to me while waiting on the airport lounge in the Buenos Aires airport. Of course, went to the airline desk, and they were happy to print a new set of boarding passes to me (after I identified, of course). But some airlines might be less accomodating. ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Re: [Debconf-discuss] printing boarding passes?
It's sometimes hard if you don't travel with a phone - Basically the only thing you really need is your confirmation code, so write that code down in a notebook (good practice to begin with :) ), and the kiosks can print it for you fairly quickly and very reliably. There is little to no wait at YUL right now, so it should be fine to print at the airport (I just did!)

That doesn't reflect the reality. There is an official app for this, and if you're an EU citizen you can use it. If you aren't (just as I am not), the reality is that they print the boarding pass with no charge but only if you've done the online check-in and are able to display the PDF version of the boarding pass on any of your devices. I'm flying with Ryanair all the time about a dozen times a year, and in the last two years I think it was just twice that I had a printed boarding pass when I came to the airport. -- Cheers, Andrew ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Untrue. They don't require printing boarding passes unless you need a visa check, and they don't charge fees for printing at the airport provided you've done a check-in and there are actual Ryanair employees at the check-in stand.

Yes, the same one that generates headlines every time they try to introduce in-flight toilet fees[1]. Even those airlines that do still allow you to get a boarding pass at the airport punish you for doing that with a long queue sometimes so the 5 minutes you lose sorting this out at home/hotel/conference/holiday destination is the lesser evil. For people who connect to a flight that is not on the same booking as the flight out of Canada it is also very useful to get the boarding pass for the second flight before boarding the first one.
