@AJA all those people hadn’t taken the trouble to check they had tickets and in one case hadn’t even paid for them.

You are very welcome not to check your own tickets and blindly to support those who can’t be bothered but then suffer the consequences, make a big fuss and blame it one someone else. I prefer to analyse the evidence rather than always blame BA.

Not checking one’s own travel tickets is just so casual, bordering on negligence. Like not bothering to check an insurance policy. There are rights and obligations on both parties to a contract. The passenger has a duty to mitigate his losses.

Do people seriously not check other sorts of tickets to check they are present and correct? Seems improbable, but if that’s the way you want to live and don’t mind the consequences, it’s a free world.

I hope people’s travelling companions are as understanding as @AJA when their plans are ruined because the booker couldn’t be a*sed with basic personal admin.

PS it’s not trolling, but merely a response to the ludicrous modern blame / shame culture and unthought through comments. Yes dear, it’s always that nasty company’s fault.
