This was shocking, to say the least. We got to the ARN airport at 5AM for our 6:20AM flight. We used a kiosk to print out our boarding passes. We had two checked bags, and we dropped those off. Those did require ID to be dropped off. Then we went through security – boarding passes were checked, but not passports or ID. I was surprised, as we were now near all of the gates. I figured they would check our ID before boarding the flight. I was wrong.
Pretty ubelievable that in 2011 I’m able to board a flight without any sort of identification. Of course, I did need ID to check my bags…
Well done, Stockholm Airport.
Update: @Euan, I was flying to Zurich. Not only did I not have to show ID in Stockholm, I did not have to get my passport stamped or checked in Zurich! No ID check in Stockholm or Zurich…
