I don't really think it's the best move, but if airlines can do it while in the air, there's no reason that DL couldn't do it when there's an alternative just a few feet away.

I think they will find that people that turn up without tickets are not very well clued in on the procedures or else they would already have tickets and/or bought them on-line. My fear is that during the morning rush, they will have effectively taken several turnstiles out of play with people trying to figure out, "do we want one day or two, is Billy a junior or an adult, . . ." I guess I could see this working after the morning rush, allowing them to close a few or all of the ticket booths, but unless the people can do it with an ATM device, they probably are going to take a lot of time blocking traffic.

(And Night Custodial, while sharing the same office, was and is separate from Day Custodial.)
