Lost ID When Traveling
March 18th, 2009
What if you lose your photo identification while trying to board a plane or train? They are, of course, much more strict than they were years ago. I once forgot to pack my license, and was able to talk my way on board. That would not work today. The TSA has instituted a new procedure according to Newday, July 13, 2008 www.newsday.com . If you should lose your identification while traveling, arrive at the security checkpoint VERY early. Explain the situation to the officer at the document checking station. You’ll need to fill out a form including your full name and address, which the officials can check against publicly available databases. If necessary, local police and TSA behavior detection officers will interview you. You may have to undergo additional screening, but at least you have a chance of boarding and you can redeem your lost identification when you return home. The ID express cases that you wear around your neck can insure that your photo ID, boarding pass and even your passport are easily available and not out of your sight. These cases assist when boarding trains, planes and on cruises. Your pertinent information is close at hand and readily available so they are less likely to be misplaced. These ID express cases then become a travel wallet by removing the around the neck cord after you board. We’re so multi-tasking today, that these in plain sight ID express cases are very practical and a great idea! Travel well organized and enjoy your trip!
