    It is not generally possible to travel on someone else's tickets these days. Photo ID is required even to collect ticket giving PNR / Ticket number. How can staff concerned commit a mistake like this? Passengers will want to take chances, but airline staff has to be careful also.
    Entry to airport is with valid ticket & valid photo id card, in which case where is the chance of this kind of lapses, I wonder?? Lets say security let them in, as they chcek in for flight, again staff at check in counter will verify passengers ID card / name etc.
    There has to be some serious connections in this case, else it is rae to happen.

    I can only say that the staff are Stupid or in collabration with the culprits, how can any one issue a boarding pass just like that, without even checking a valid I.D. This is utter nonsense.

    Their boarding cards seem to have been obtained with much ease. In this day and age, one would expect security measures to be much more stringent.

    These 3 who had come to write the COMED-K exams are aspiring Doctors and Engineers - and at this young age have taken to deceit and cheating - shudder to think of how they will go about their chosen profession in later life. lack of proper parental and moral guidance.
