My read was slightly more generous, that, since the only indication of status was the ticket, the only people who saw it were the scanners and they just let anyone in. So now there will be staff farther up redirecting people without the credential to other gates.

I still think it's dumb, but hey, my kid had fun with the lanyard pretending it was a necklace and a fishing line, so I guess there's that.

Also, what the hell is with sending us this big glossy packet, but then making us print the tickets from 7 different goddamn PDFs? Couldn't they pay the extra $0.50 to just mail us some nice tickets like they used to? Sometimes it really seems like whoever's in charge has completely lost their marbles.
