2) AIR passengers will soon be able to use their iPhones instead of boarding
passes to get on a flight.
The new application from British Airways uses a
barcode on the phone’s screen which is scanned at the departure gate. The iPhone
boarding pass will be available on BA flights from Heathrow to Edinburgh from Monday.
Although other airlines, such as Air France, have
already introduced the barcode technology, BA has gone further, incorporating
the boarding pass within an app that will also contain flight information,
check-in times and, eventually, boarding gates and boarding times.
It is expected to be available for all domestic routes by the end of next
month, for short-haul within six months and for long-haul by the middle of next
year.

As a completely new puppy owner I recognize the value of all the details listed here. I would like my family dog to get effectively trained and have a healthy and balanced environment to live in. Thanks for the tips.
