CPH Airport

[pbarov]

Hey,I used your app to enter in the Copenhagen airport but it didn’t work,i put a real flight number and false name,tried changing Aztec and pdf format but it failed ,what could be the reason for that?

There is an online automatic lookup in the actual passenger list. For obvious security reasons. Hence, the boarding pass generator is of little real value.

So,there is no way to cheat the system and to enter?

At least not this way. This attack vector is described in the official IATA specs and dismissed as not an issue due to automatic online lookups before validation.

May be if the automatic online lookup is not available for all flights and companies,but it's very difficult to understand.Anyway,I just tried it for fun,i often travel via Copenhagen Airport and I was curios to test the security system.

"At least not this way"... is there another way? which one?
