Nothing wrong with that; I did it for years before getting the Presidential Plus credit card. However, non-members' circumstantial right to access the hive is the very reason hive cyborgs scrutinize would-be entrants so disagreeably. If one wants to use a boarding pass to access a hive, so be it, but for a member not to carry a 2/10-oz* piece of plastic which would easily prove right-of-entry is persnickety beyond reason.
RNE, spare me those too cool to carry.
*I weighed it.
