Do note Airlines counter are not very friendly at some airports and machines may / may not operate. Also airlines may levy service charges for issuing boarding pass from the airport counter. Since these are collective passengers tickets, normal web checkin, meal selection, extra baggage purchase, wheel chair addition, GST or any other special services cannot be added in these tickets.
