Redesigning the Boarding Pass

On boarding passes:

I was bored so I started rummaging through my stuff trying to find something to read when I grabbed my boarding pass. So I stared at it for a while. Rubbed my eyes, then stared at it some more. 

It was like someone put on a blindfold, drank a fifth of whiskey, spun around 100 times, got kicked in the face by a mule (the person who designed this definitely has a mule living with them inside their house) and then just started puking numbers and letters onto the boarding pass at random (yes, I realize that a human didn’t lay this out, if a human had, judging by the train-wreck of design, they would have surely used papyrus). There was nothing given size or color importance over anything else, it was a mess. 

Hilarious and so true. Came across this after checking out Flight Card and following on to Sylion’s twitter stream.

Flight Card looks great. I don’t fly that often, otherwise I’d definitely use this app. I just may buy it anyways, just because it’s pretty.
