===Problems=== *Passengers have to remember to check-in in advance of their flight. *Passengers need to have access to a printer and provide the paper and ink themselves or find printing points that already have them, to avoid being charged to print their boarding passes at the airport. Affordable access to printers equipped with paper and ink one can use to print one's boarding pass can be difficult to find while travelling away from home or their offices, although some airlines have responded by allowing passengers to check-in further in advance.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://support.easyjet.com/case-5894|title=Print the boarding passes for all flights before you leave home|access-date=February 10, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150211044010/http://support.easyjet.com/case-5894|archive-date=February 11, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ryanair.com/en/terms-and-conditions/article6/|title=General Terms & Conditions of Carriage|access-date=February 10, 2015}}</ref> Additionally, some hotels have computer terminals that allow passengers to access their airlines' website to print out boarding cards or passengers can email the boarding cards to the hotel's reception which can print it out for them. *Some kinds of printers such as older dot matrix printers may not print the QR barcode portion legibly enough to be read accurately by the scanners. *Some budget airlines which have moved towards passengers printing their boarding passes in advance may charge an unexpected hidden fee to print the boarding pass at the airport, often in excess of the cost of the flight itself.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-08-15 |title=Passengers' fury after Ryanair charges them Β£110 for two boarding passes |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/ryanair-charge-boarding-passes-passengers-b2393203.html |access-date=2023-11-11 |website=The Independent |language=en}}</ref> This, along with other such hidden costs, has led to allegations of false advertising and [[drip pricing]] being levelled towards the budget airlines in question.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ltd |first=Jacobs Media Group |title=Government confirms plans to tackle 'drip pricing' |url=http://travelweekly.co.uk/news/air/government-confirms-plans-to-tackle-drip-pricing |access-date=2023-11-11 |website=Travel Weekly |language=en}}</ref>
