San Diego International is the newest airport to pilot the all electronic boarding pass system. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Continental Airlines now offer this service at 18 airports and is expanding quickly. When you purchase your ticket, you receive an e-mail containing a two dimensional bar code, which TSA will scan at the checkpoint prior to screening. This not only saves paper, but expedites long lines, and improves customer service.

Will paper versions still be available?
Yep, you can always print one out at home or at the KIOSK.
I really enjoy your blog, thanks for all of your informative posts! Just wanted to stop by and let you know that I think readers of your blog would really be interested in this article I came across on askmelissa.com that lists a bunch of quality, affordable FAA approved travel kits to carry on a plane. Here’s the link for all of those that are interested, I think they’re great! http://tinyurl.com/ntrlbk
Passengers buying electronic tickets still sometimes print out the confirmation on an A4 paper which is still a huge waste. I think this system still needs some tweaking.
