No more tickets for European flights with SN Brussels
27/12/04 - From January 1, passengers of SN Brussels Airlines no longer need a ticket for a flight in Europe. They only need their identity card. All information about the flight and the passenger will be saved on an on-board computer until after the flight.
This kind of electronic ticket has advantages both for customer and airline company says a spokesman of SN Brussels. As a passenger, you cannot lose or forget your ticket and it can no longer be stolen. For the airline company it is cheaper mainly because paper tickets no longer need to be processed. Passengers insisting on still having a paper ticket have to pay 20 euro extra.
Low-budget airline companies Ryanair and Virgin Express are the initiators of the 'no more paper ticket' policy in Belgium. They introduced the system already quite some time ago.
SN Brussels Airlines is a Belgian airline formed in 2001 following the bankruptcy of flag carrier Sabena.
Cheers,
