According to an article in USAtoday.com your cell phone or PDA could soon stand in for your boarding pass. Houston’s Intercontinental Airport is testing a pilot program. Continental Airlines and TSA, the partners for the test, would allow you pass through security and on to your flight by showing a digital boarding pass on your cell or PDA device. You’ll still need to carry your photo i.d., but imagine how much paper could be saved in a year if you don’t have to print and carry your boarding pass any longer? I’m anxious to see this program rolled out nationwide.
