Thanks.

I get that but... we didn't show our boarding passes. It was passports.

There were people in front of us in the queue who just put their driving licenses into some card reader.

My point being that what was or wasn't on the boarding pass wasn't the issue.

I'm new to this and somewhat naive. I just don't understand why the same ID can't be used both ways.
