India's national carrier Air India was once again in news for all the wrong reasons. Thanks to the faulty boarding pass scanner and confusion among Air India employees a Muscat bound passenger boarded a Mumbai bound flight. However the passenger realised at the last moment that he was on the wrong plane and alerted the flight staff, who then helped him alight the Mumbai flight. The incident happened because the boarding pass scanning machine at the gate was not working and the staffers did a manual checking of the boarding pass.
