Let me defend the idea that it's not a simple survey on vacation habits that explains why 75% of travelers verify their papers in advance.
It's a pragmatic reaction to administrative constraints, a lesson learned from experience, not an arbitrary preference.
In Italy, the difficulty of obtaining a SPID appointment or renewing an ID card can impose delays of several weeks, turning anticipation into pure necessity.
This inversion of cause and effect shows that we confuse preparation with the fear of administrative blockage, a reality that simple survey questions can't fully capture.
A missed flight due to an expired document is a real consequence that pushes to action.
