What that barcode on your boarding pass reveals about you
About to snap a photo of your airline boarding pass and share it on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram? Don't be so hasty, at least not if you value your privacy. That slip of paper – or more correctly, the innocuous barcode on it – can reveal a wealth of information about you. (www.ausbt.com.au) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
This article basically says that your name, ticket class, and flight number and route are on your ticket. Who would've thought? And if you didn't have the technology to read the bar code you could just read it printed in English...
waste of time article, really! Everything in the bar code is printed on the ticket...oh save for the very personal and private time I checked in. Please do not post things trying to scare the population when there is no need for alarm.
I'll admit to being curious about which fields are validated where -- which fields are looked at, e.g. at security (just that you have a flight today? that the name is found in some manifest of the day's passengers?) ... at the lounges (can you change your class of service to give you access or does it look up the booking in the computer?), etc.
Interesting idea to change what is says on the pass... If you could get a lounge access for free that would be pretty cool
Nothing really outstanding on the tags, but tmi on the actual pass.
I am sure there is information that is not needed to be sure.
