Problem is less the boarding pass and more that the gate numbers often change several times. Some terminals also have departure boards at inconvenient places. zOMG, I really need to take a leak, I have 10 min to catch my connecting flight, there are five terminals in the airport, and where the heck is the departure screen, DAMMIT?!? ARRRGH!
(a) have a standard sign for "Departure Screen This Way!"
(b) post the data on the Web in a mobile/app-friendly manner.
(c) if they can have screens playing CNN at every lounge, why can't they have them cut off and display connecting flights when passengers are deplaning at a given gate?
(And yes, they often announce the connecting gate numbers before landing, but with the quality of most plane tannoys overlaid with a 400hz hum, good luck hearing it.)
