This has to do with cancelled flights. I have never been to an airport. I emailed a few questions to a friend, but I still have a few uncertainties about the process. I have shortened the 1.5 page scene to just the parts relevant to this post.
The scene: A businessman working on a hectic schedule rushed to the counter and swiped his card at the computer. But instead of getting his boarding pass he was notified that his flight had been cancelled.
Question 1: Do passengers first check the board for cancellations or are they notified by the computer or by the clerk?
The man becomes agitated and argues, then:
The short, pudgy man leaned his stomach onto the counter and pulled himself over to the other side.
“Please, sir, you can’t come back here!” called out the woman.
The man wouldn’t listen. He grabbed the computer and began to assault it.
“I need a boarding pass!” he shouted. “Give me a damn pass!”
Question 2: Does the computer screen face the customer? If it does he does not have to climb over the counter.
Question 3: Can the computer be grabbed and shaken or is it bolted to the counter?
Question 4: Do TSA agents carry TASERS? They do so far in this scene.
And out of curiosity when did they replace the ticket with the boarding pass?
