- shmeeed 2y agoSpotted the fellow European
- bombcar 2y agoI love how half the Europeans are insisting that they get ID checked all the time and the other half say they’ve never been checked in the Schezen area. In the USA I’ve been on some flights where they just glanced at the boarding pass which obviously isn’t checking anything against a database.
- jplrssn 2y agoI’ve noticed a fair few comments here and elsewhere starting with “In Europe…” and then extrapolating from the commenter’s experience living in a single EU country. Maybe that’s a testament to how successful harmonisation of national rules has been across the EU. But it doesn’t seem to apply to ID checks.
- bombcar 2y agoI suspect it has much more to do with airline policies (which are influenced both by the gate country and the airline’s country) than with Europe directly.
- kiwijamo 2y agoNot the case for internal/domestic flights in New Zealand, and I presume it's similar for other countries. Only on international flights do I see regaular requests for passports for understandable reasons.
