Find out why.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Messing up with your personal details<\/h2>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shutterstock_172022696-Copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26914\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shutterstock_172022696-Copy.jpg\" alt=\"Picture of Indian passport, boarding pass and currency\" width=\"700\" height=\"459\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Your boarding pass particularly consists of the identified information namely, the name of the passenger, date of travelling, seat number and flight number. Now just imagine, if someone wants to play a trick on you, he can provide all your personal information to the airline department and easily change your date of travelling, cancel your flight or change your desired seat. Shocking hm?<\/p>\n<h2>2. Decoding the barcode<\/h2>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/c070bdb5d60079d77d0e384b82cf4531.600x.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26890\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/c070bdb5d60079d77d0e384b82cf4531.600x.jpg\" alt=\" Picture showing barcode on the boarding pass\" width=\"700\" height=\"317\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"http:\/\/img-cdn.likes.com\/img\/c070bdb5d60079d77d0e384b82cf4531.600x.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Curious about knowing what that barcode on your boarding pass holds? Not a tough job now! There is a website that can decode all the data stored in barcodes. Usually, it contains:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date of birth<\/li>\n<li>Billing address information<\/li>\n<li>Frequent Flyer number<\/li>\n<li>Arrival and departure destination<\/li>\n<li>Elite status<\/li>\n<li>Class of travel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After extracting the above from the barcode, someone can pull up the information and misuse it against you.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Resetting the pin of the frequent flyer number<\/h2>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Flightripmainboardingpass.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26891\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Flightripmainboardingpass.jpg\" alt=\"Passenger holding his boarding pass\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.travelsupermarket.com\/blog\/7-flight-rip-offs-and-how-to-avoid-them\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It is a unique number assigned by an airline to the user who is enrolled in the frequent flyer program to collect points which can later be redeemed for an air travel or to earn rewards. To access the account, you have to enter the pin, and just in case you have forgotten your pin, answer a secret question whose answer can be found in your social media account like on facebook and twitter. A not so nice person can reset the pin of your flyer\u2019s account, leaving you stranded somewhere.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Take up the picture from social media<\/h2>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/boarding-paa-FB.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26889\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/boarding-paa-FB.jpg\" alt=\"A person with boarding pass posing for social media\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-sS5y_qNix64\/VzUuVsa3AtI\/AAAAAAAAGJ8\/0AOKaB79STwl6TcSZOAKQOa3wQOnhB2fACK4B\/s1600\/boarding-paa-FB.jpg\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Before you show your excitement by posting the picture of your boarding pass on social media, be aware of the danger coming towards you as a wicked person can mishandle your personal details.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>So, the next time you think of trashing your boarding pass, keeping it in a magazine or putting it in front of your seat, feed in your conscious mind the repercussions coming your way with it. And maybe, you can collect all your boarding passes that will bring you back into the good old times when your look at them in future.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of us are excited about travelling in a plane and peep out of the window but once the journey ends, we throw away our boarding passes, treating them just like a mere piece of paper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":26915,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[219,3],"tags":[1105,419,9817,467,603,800,325,378,319],"coauthors":[297],"class_list":{"0":"post-26888","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-infoop","8":"category-travel-tips","9":"tag-boarding-pass","10":"tag-infoop","11":"tag-leaderboardads","12":"tag-referralpopup","13":"tag-thumbsuppopup","14":"tag-travel-news","15":"tag-travel-tips","16":"tag-trending","17":"tag-worldwide"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>And Now You Will Never Throw Away Your Boarding Pass<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"List of 4 things after which you will never toss your boarding passes into the bin ever.
