Absolutely. The issue was the assumption that anyone who used the term miss would be a child and not an adult which is an incredible oversight.

- iudqnolq 6y agoNot according to the company, which remedied the issue by running a batch script to change people's title to Ms if the other records indicated they were adult females. Apparently the people who check in after the batch script runs the night before takeoff can be safely ignored.
- Grustaf 6y agoThis is a workaround based on the existing programmer error. It doesn't indicate that "ms" is correct in any way, just that it gives the correct result.
- iudqnolq 6y agoYes? How does that relate to what I said?
- Grustaf 6y agoYou said that since they solved it by changing miss to ms, that means that miss was actually wrong. This is not true. Besides the fact that miss does NOT mean child, what they did was a workaround. They solved it that was because it was simpler. It doesn't indicate that they think miss = child is correct. Most likely they didn't even have access to the code.
