On: Post-surgical deaths in Scotland drop by a third, ...

Man, if I was travelling to a different country and needed a passport AND forgot my passport, then I would agree with you. I guess my life is not so hectic that I don't forget the absolute necessities (you can't fly without that or you can die without that).

If you travel often but only sometimes to other countries the travel part becomes routine and the need for a passport can be forgotten.

I could see that being problematic.

My life is not that hectic and I often travel to other countries, yet I have forgotten my passport once and only once. Part of me thinks that once it happens it's very unlikely to happen again.

I still don't use a checklist for traveling, but I do use a to-do list religiously for...actual things to do. After this thread, I may just add a few more lists.
