Contrary to what many replies are telling you, the link clearly states that if you don't own a smartphone, you can check in online and then obtain a boarding pass for free at the airport.

(Not sure how easy that will be or if they actually verify that you don't own a smartphone, etc.)

The press release says absolutely nothing of the sort.


Technically, the vast majority of users don't own their device. They are leasing it through their carrier. Then because it is HN, once the device is paid off, the user still doesn't own it as they cannot use it as they see fit and still must use it as the manufacturer sees fit. So this "own" word is potential for interpretation

I’m sorry, I am not seeing that at all at the link. I am surely missing something, but can you cut/paste what you are seeing on this point?

The linked article doesn't have that info. But it is in their FAQ

> as long as they have already checked-in online before arriving at the airport, they will receive a free of charge boarding pass at the airport.
