Airline Ticket Jacket

Recommended Posts

Sorry guys for a little self promotion. A while back I came up with an idea for a holder for airline tickets to protect them so they don't end up a crumpled wad at the end of your trip. It also keeps your ID with your boarding pass so you're not fumbling around with all those important documents at security.

I recently came across Instructables.com where you can post instructions for projects like this one. The ticket holder is made with stuff that is pretty common around a rigger's loft. Well maybe not the vinyl, but you can pick up that at Wal-Mart.

Please check out my post. If you find it useful, use the instructions to make one of your own. Thanks

The only downside to that "wallet" is that you still have to remove the ticket when approaching the security screeners. Many of them have to physically mark, or initial the ticket when you go through.

Other than that, nice work.
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Thanks. Sometimes you can slide the ticket half out and they will get their mark made and you just slide it back in.

Also the vinyl can get sticky. A clear plastic would work better, but vinyl was cheap at Wal-Mart.

I just use the free paper ones the airlines give you.
The ticket sticks out so they can see it and mark on it and it doesn't get crumpled.
They also make a decent book mark when readin on the trips.
Did I mention that they're free???;)
