For a start, instead of
waiting for the postman to deliver those coveted airline tickets, all
travellers will soon be able to enter the world of e-ticketing. This
will allow passengers to book their flights over the web and store their
details in an e-ticket held by their airline - eliminating the painful
process of only realising upon arrival at the airport that the important
slips of paper are back at home on the kitchen table.
Of course in this day and age, the benefits of such a practice extend
beyond mere convenience. Unlike their paper counterparts, these tickets
cannot be stolen and reused by someone else, as the information can only
be accessed by authorised staff. In addition, some tickets can be easily
updated should any changes be made to the journey, avoiding multiple
trips to the travel agent. |
