Review on πŸ”’ Travelon Blocking Passport Black: Ultimate Size for Secure Travel by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The RFID blocking technology really works

I'm always a little skeptical about technology I'm not very knowledgeable about, so this morning I tested my new RFID blocking passport cover at work. I put my passport in the holder, held the passport holder (with my passport) directly on the scanner for about 1 minute and 15 seconds and the door would not open. After the test phase, I removed my access badge, held it up to the RFID scanner and the door opened. I am impressed. The job seems well done. I haven't tried inserting and removing your passport (apparently CBP people don't like having your passport in a case so you have to take it out of the case when you get to the counter, which I found out when I... emailed someone - someone I know CBP) to see how easy/difficult it would be. I like having 4 card slots for extra space to store my ID/credit cards. Not mentioned is the fact that the case has a small tie sewn into it that can serve as a bookmark in your password for an important page (probably the main page with your photo and information). I think the only thing I would want in my suitcase is an enlarged compartment for immigration forms and maybe a pen holder in case I filled something wrong. .

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
