This is what surprised me most of all
Admittedly I checked in online, but the guy at security scanned my boarding pass - surely he'd have spotted something awry, like me being 26 hours early for the flight? Of course, I only had hand luggage with me - presumably if I'd had hold baggage with me, somebody would have said something much earlier (and saved me waiting for two hours to be let out of the departure lounge).

I was under the impression that you couldn't get into the lounge over something like 4 hours before the flight, maybe even less on short-hull.
And if I was designing the machines, I wouldn't let them spit out the ticket in something like over 18 hours (therefore accounting for people who are at a local hotel, and even then, maybe intrigrate the hotel booking into the system).
