Funny Booking Codes You'd Rather Not Get
Booking codes are usually a random combination of letters and numbers. However, when you see these funny codes, you won't think they're accidental at all!
#2 You're the Chosen One!
At first glance, you might think there's nothing unusual about this boarding pass. However, if you know what the code "SSSS" stands for, your stomach will turn.
The so-called "Secondary Security Screening Selection" means that, mostly due to no obvious reason, you were chosen for a random, extensive security control. This kind of ticket poses several problems right from the beginning. For example, when you get chosen for this random check, you can't print the boarding pass at home, nor at the self-service terminal. Moreover, the thorough security check of both your luggage and your clothes takes up a lot of time.
That's why you should get to the airport super early when you see this booking code on your ticket.
The next booking reference makes us nervous right away too...
