Passports
 
Those of you FT'ers who have a passport, just out of curiousity, when you're not traveling, where do you keep yours? Sock Drawer? Briefcase?

B747-437B Mar 12, 2004 3:36 pm

I have an "important papers" folder in my desk drawer includes irreplacable documents such as future airline tickets, upgrade vouchers, etc... The passport goes there on the rare occasions it isn't being used!

Nuitari Mar 12, 2004 4:28 pm

In a drawer among tons and tons of useless papers.

In can take quite some time to find if I forget where I placed it inside the drawer.

Kiwi Flyer Mar 12, 2004 4:44 pm

Mine gets used fairly regularly and stays in my "things to put into carryon/pocket" pile.

Kris Rao Mar 12, 2004 4:51 pm

I travel very frequently. Mine always stays in a folder in my laptop case.

GUWonder Mar 12, 2004 4:58 pm

In my suit, blazer or jacket pocket. Otherwise in my "travel document" folder from Liberty Travel or Rosenbluth.

Mine goes in a kitchen cabinet with a few other cards like the local library card, Blockbusters card, etc. However it is finally running out of space so I need to either have it replaced with the 48 page model or have pages added to it.

Other than last weekend when I washed $ dried it, I keep in in a pocket of my laptop case. That way I always (almost)know wher it is and I never travel with out the laptop.

prncess674 Mar 12, 2004 6:47 pm

I keep it in my leather travel documents folio which is ALWAYS in my laptop bag. You never know when you need to jet out of the country. A few times I have had unexpected international trips come up and having your passport FedEx'd is nerve wracking. Now it is like my AMEX, don't leave home without it.

Pictures From My Trips & Travels

In the linen closet by our bathroom. Once in awhile I take it out and admire the visas.

cordelli Mar 12, 2004 8:45 pm

One of those little compartments in an antique desk with all the other travel stuff.

Georgia Peach Mar 12, 2004 11:02 pm

In my empty suitcase, so it's the first thing I see when I start packing, then it goes in my purse.

R&R Mar 12, 2004 11:21 pm

<that is an easy one

<right inside the left inner pocket of the continental travel wallet in the top pocket of the travelpro rollon next to my bed, where it is waiting for the next trip or an immediate getaway.

sorry for the lack of capitols, but this machine like so much else in acapulco does not work that well.
<i gather it is not on very many flyers itinerary.

cheers

Travel Moneybelt which is then deposited into the lower desk drawer.

jmscsc Mar 13, 2004 6:51 am

In my desk drawer with my future airline tickets, Crown Room club membership card, and Medallion level FF card for easy access.

stut Mar 13, 2004 6:56 am

I've got a lovely little travel wallet that hold passport, FF cards, boarding passes, Dutch Privium card, etc. It lives on my bedside table when I'm not travelling. But I travel abroad weekly, so usually it's in my pocket.

njvj Mar 13, 2004 7:19 am

In the side pocket of my purse. It easier to get at than getting my driver's license out of the little slot in my wallet. Consequently, I use it for ID whenever I travel. If I put it somewhere " special" I would be more likely to lose it.

cordelli Mar 13, 2004 10:02 am

I don't understand it officer, the passport was the only thing taken. It's like they knew exactly where it was, nothing else was touched.

gnedge Mar 13, 2004 3:01 pm

Pretty much the same as the above posters ... it stays in the inside left pocket of my winter coat during the winter.

During the summer, however, it stays with my wallet - if only I could remember where that is....

HigherFlyer Mar 13, 2004 3:47 pm

In my carry on bag.

How do you find liberty travels services to be? I have found them to be horrible on the ocassions I have attempted to use them.

I only use them occassionally and that too only one person at the UES one. I generally avoid them and have avoided using them for the past year. I basically keep the ticket pouches which make for great holders.

Goldlust Mar 14, 2004 5:46 am

I keep mine in my safe.

I have an old empty cigar box that I keep on my desk with "super-important-better-not-lose-this-stuff" things in it.

USCGamecock Mar 14, 2004 8:27 pm

Always in my briefcase. http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...m/thumbsup.gif
