You're On the Wrong Plane

This morning as we were nearly finished boarding the flight, the gate attendant came on and made a announcement for Laurel X (names have been changed to protect the embarrassed) to report to the gate agent. No one got up. He makes another announcement saying this time, "Laurel X, please come see me at the gate. You're on the wrong plane!" Of course she is seated nearly at the back and has to walk past every one, knowing they are all thinking how you could end up on the wrong plane. Better her than me!

Wow. We just talked about that yesterday and wondered if it was possible in this digital age of scanning. Apparently it is.

A lot of times they collect the boarding passes and then scan them all in at once. I figure that's how they found out.
