E Tickets

Am i old fashioned or what? Why do I find it so hard to believe that, if I have booked an air ticket on-line, the ground staff will actually let me on the plane? It's not as if its the first e-ticket I have booked either. The first time I stood in the queue at the airline desk clutching a sheet of paper in my hand and was not even asked for any proof that I had booked on-line, just my ID (it was a domestic flight) and that was it. Then the next one needed my passport, even though I had printed out my e-ticket. But they always seem to move the goal posts slightly - just when I had become complacent, Easy Jet now send an email asking for the passport details for both of us. Without these, the email says, we will not be allowed to board the plane. SO more anguish - what if I accidentally type in a wrong number (being elderly, deaf, short-sighted, this is a strong possibility!), R's worry - what if the email is not from EasyJet at all but someone after our secret details. It's a complicated flight pattern too - to join our Norwegian cruise we need to get to Edinburgh (that was the cheapest way to do this trip) so it's a taxi from here at 6.30 am (what if my French is not good enough and the taxi misunderstands me and doesn't arrive in time?) train from the village below to connect with the mainline train to Geneva airport, EasyJet to Edinburgh (if they let us on the plane), spend the night in the Pirie hotel (if my ebooking is valid), up again next morning at crack of .., bus to airport and Scandinavian airways to Copenhagen, Copenhagen to Bergen, airport to docks and then we can relax once we are on board and safely in our cabin. 10 days later we do it all in reverse!! We were beginning to panic as the cruise people had sent us both a packet of travel documents which never arrived and an email with all the documents which I didn't realise were our travel docs and didn't try to download them for 2 weeks, and then the email had expired!! Anyway the replacement package arrived this morning so we have those safely in hand. All we need now is an early season iceberg!! Just kidding!
