We boarded in Southampton earlier this week. We had our medallions mailed to us in the US prior to departure. Total and complete waste of time and energy. When we walked up to the check-in counter, we were asked if we had our medallions. We said yes.
Had I said, no, the agent would’ve turned around and grabbed our medallions from the shelf right directly behind the check-in counter. There is a huge pile of white boxes just sitting there waiting.
