But would you forget your passport and expect to be allowed to fly?

I really can't see the issue with having to produce your card to gain access to the lounges. That said, I only showed my boarding card at T5 and EDI lounges (although I had my card in my wallet) and I was allowed access without question.

I see no dragons.
