boarding card

Gate entry permit

A boarding card is a document issued by an airline or transportation company that permits a passenger to board a vehicle, typically an airplane.

It confirms the passenger's reservation and displays essential information such as seat assignment, departure gate, and boarding time.

The term is used interchangeably with boarding pass, though boarding pass is more common in American English while boarding card appears more frequently in British English.

Please have your boarding card ready at the gate.
