Comment Re:ID Required in France (Score 1) 312
You may be required to have the ID with you, but I have never been asked to show it on either outbound or inbound airport.
Just showing the ticket (or even just putting the ticket in the automatic check-in machine, not even talking to a human being) has been enough to get a boarding pass and that's it. But then I am neither dark skinned or wearing a head scarf (concerning the random check), not that the automatic machine knows that.
I believe the passport had to be shown once, when passing into one of the new EU countries, before it became a member. But showing the cover (EU passport) was enough then, they didn't bother opening it. (Kissing up?)
