The somewhat hidden clue is in the sequence number, or simply "SEQ" on a boarding pass, which references the order in which passengers can check in for a flight. That order can then be used to determine who is able to board a flight, and who is not. In fact, that same sequence number can be used to determine whether a passenger gets involuntarily bumped from a flight, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
