Dr Wee questions differing Senai Airport, KLIA e-boarding pass protocols


KUALA LUMPUR: Former transport minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong has questioned the differing security protocols at Senai Airport and Kuala Lumpur International Airport after an elderly man was initially not allowed to board a flight at the airport in Johor.

According to Dr Wee, the man's daughter had obtained e-boarding passes for herself and her father on her mobile phone but was told his e-boarding pass was invalid as each individual must have the pass in their own mobile phone.
