I used to think that but cannot remember why....over the last 5 years or so just showed up with email or PDF on phone and passport. I suppose if your phone fails it might be handy to have a printed copy..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time it's "failed" for me was when I handed over the "wrong" passport at check-in. I gave the lady the PP with my Thai stuff in (as they usually look for overstay etc.) but the system had the number of my PP I intended entering Oz on, just gave her the other PP which solved the problem. Not an issue now as I'm down to one valid PP, not travelling nearly as often (work, not covid, reasons). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfill Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 2 hours ago, Nout said: Maybe not NEED to but really useful to have a hard copy. Not really. I usually have a post-it note with the booking id stuck to the passport. It helps the desk as the code is their main search tool. They only have to type the code in and ask no more.. Nowadays they send all the stuff by phone with QR codes and you can just wave it at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does no harm and can be valuable if the airline system is playing up, which they do at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree you only need the passport, but I tend to carry too much paper just in case and it's never a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
