New Google Now card creates a digital boarding pass for you upon airport check-in

Google promised it will be gradually adding useful cards to its Google Now virtual butler service that came with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and it delivers. Meet Google Now Boarding Pass - this card will grab your electronic boarding pass after you are checked in at the airport location.

The feature will work only with supported airlines, of course, and, given how Google Now is US-based for the time being, if you are flying Air Malta, there is a very high probability the Boarding Pass card won't be of any use to you, but it's a welcome addition for the big airlines' customers and especially for the absent-minded among us.
