Great tip as always Laurie. Not only do I put it into my personal item but into the same spot I’ve designated for my passport & boarding every time. For me, it reduces the potential for those anxious “Where did I put it?!” moments.
@AroundTheWorldWithEase
I have seen a million travel tipsters. You're one in a million! You are a natural teacher. Bravo and Bon Voyage!
@irina8677
Great tip! I started doing exactly that after I dropped my passport in a tunnel leading to aeroplane. Thank God there was a good man behind me who picked up my passport and brought it to the plane showing it to everybody.
@punchprincess_etc
Some airports — Tampa comes to mind — require showing boarding pass and/or ID TWICE — once to get on the tram to the satelite boarding gates and once to the actual gate. Train your muscles to put your docs in the same place EVERY TIME!

Getting ready for a trip to London with my family and stressing out! I travel alot and in Europe but never with grandkids, etc. Your tips have really helped me. Keeping fingers crossed for a good, safe trip! Thanks!

I just got back from a multi- country trip and none of them allowed me to walk thru screening with my passport. It had to go in the bin with my other personal items or in my carry on. But like you, its the first thing I grab and put in my designated place for fear of losing it.
@Ohjustlovely
Get a passport holder with a neck lanyard. The holder has room for your id, your loose dollar bills, your airline tickets. Also get separate lanyard holder for your cellphone.

Nope. It's staying in my hand. If my personal item gets through the screening before I do and sits at the end of the conveyor, it's susceptible to someone taking it either intentionally or unintentionally.

Omg, funny timing of this video! I was in TSA PreCheck, USA. I set the alarm off 3x! Removed my jacket, shoes, no metal on my clothes, no belt. Argh!! I almost begged her to pat me down as I pat myself down, while others were easily walking past me. No other agent tried to help. Meanwhile my husband on the other side is throwing coach’s hand signals to check here & check there. Then finally the TSA agent figured it out. Tip: do not have ID/Passport in an RFID cover when walking thru the detector. I had it in my hand the whole time (bcuz it was 6am & no coffee 🥱), in clear view but she couldn’t figure it out either until the 4th try. 🎉
@DChristina
Yes, this helps me tremendously- and I thank you! I haven’t flown for years and appreciate all your travel tips, have been watching several of your videos. I love that you get right to the point and have a sweet, charming style while doing so. Thanks again! 😘💕🙏🏼
@DeeDarby_UK
I always wear a passport and ticket wallet around my neck; it's small enough to put in my personal bag at security.

The things we forget to do, you help us remember 😊

I made sure, when I traveled to South Korea, that I should have a designated place for it the entire time on my trip. I also made sure to leave extra time before my first flight (i had two domestic US flights to get to my international flight, both layovers were only 45 minutes a piece so running across Detroit and Atl airports) to securely put it somewhere before boarding my first flight. I'm the type to lose things but this is one thing I couldn't lose at any point. I wouldnt trust any pocket that wouldn't zipper so I chose my personal item inside pocket of the larger pocket closest to my body at any given time. It was securly double zippered then bit still at easy access. Any time I sat down and had a minute, I would double check it was still there. When I had to take it out to show it, I wouldn't do anything else until it was securely back in its spot. It all worked out and I never lost my passport but I'm still scared I will at some point.
@yvonnefriel4604
Thank you Laurie, this makes perfect sense and prevents your ID and passport getting lost or stolen. Watching all your tips for our next trip.
@eyadabuamara1419
My personal very long experience of more than 43 yrs in travelling via airports proved that the best and most safe and secured place to keep the passport all along the trip is to keep it inside your front "blue jeans "pants pocket.❤
@francinep1326
I love all your videos!! You are so helpful and easy to listen to! Such great information always! Thank you so much!!
@MrDenisScott
I do wear a shirt with a front pocket so I can put my passport and boarding pass away as soon as walk through security which liberate both hands so I can gather all my items. I also wear a cardigan over my shirt to hide the front pocket while I walk through the airport. Good video.
@johnscott6412
Wear a shirt with a top pocket, my daughter 16 years a flight attendant only once has had someone riffle through someone’s overhead locker baggage stole credit cards/ passports etc. yes they were arrested on landing
@pc99998
That's why shirts, pants, and any other form of clothing has pockets.
