Shows Faster to the Fun on Boarding pass/luggage tags, but didn't purchase?

According to the following article, "“The agents at the terminal will have a list of everyone who purchased [Faster To The Fun]” and “They will be manually checking all guests, and only allowing [priority boarding] to those who purchased it.”

 

I wonder how long they will be manually checking?

 

 

I would imagine it would be indefinitely. At best, a dishonest person might be able to use the priority check in line to get to security, but when they scan the boarding pass the system will show that they didn't actually purchase it and will still be assigned the same boarding group/zone number. The same dishonest person might also get their bags delivered to their cabin sooner if they use the luggage tag with the FTTF/priority logo on them since there's no barcode on them to scan.

 

Thankfully, it seems as if the issue was only for a few days so I imagine that there won't be that many people who suddenly all printed their boarding passes in that time frame just to try to take advantage of the glitch.

I'm platinum and had my boarding passes printed before the glitch. I did reprint boarding passes for about 8 people in my group of 78 during three glitch. They used them and went through with us with no problems. The boarding passes was scanned or checked asset least 3 to 4 times street going through security. I liked the new way, however others I my group didn't.

 

We were I the Dec 11 Victory sailing.

I'm just wondering why Carnival hasn't addressed this issue/glitch in some way. I also noticed the new boarding passes several days ago and FTTF showed up on ours so I thought we got lucky and maybe the casino put it on there but several days later it was gone. It was exciting then a letdown, this cruise will be a Christmas Day surprise for our kids so we thought now they will be even more excited. It doesn't matter either way as we are excited to be cruising again and the kids will only have a weeks notice!!

There is a glitch in the system. None platinum people have faster to the fun showing on their boarding passes and luggage tags, it was not purchased. Last night the platinum boarding passes were showing priority on them and today it says faster to the fun.

 

We're Diamond and the new style boarding passes and luggage tags have BOTH Priority in red and the FTTF logo on them just like the old ones did.
