de727ups, you may want to double check your info. I recently renewed my passport and had about a two week period where I was without the passport. I didn't think it would be a big deal since I had a relatively easy commute on my own company. Well, murphys law kicked in, and on the last day of a trip, I ended up missing my commute. The last option home that night was a UPS freighter. Knowing I didn't have my passport, I called the UPS jumpseat 800 number and explained my situation. They told me that it was not required and I made the flight home that night. Since then, I have used your company about a dozen times and have never been asked for a passport.
