They don't really need them, literally every type of place they could want to go on holiday is attached on one huge piece of land. UK figures would probably be the same if we were attached to Europe

No, the idea of travel is to sample new cultures, people and language.

They can travel a lot of places outside the continental US without a passport. Puerto Rico, USVI, Guam, Hawaii, American Samoa etc.

That's plenty to be going on with .....

I read about this ages ago, it doesn't surprise me considering America is so huge. I would hate to not have a passport though.

I remember when I was a kid we drove into Canada and didn't need a passport. Of course times may have changed. Not that I'm bragging but there are more sites and places to visit in the US than I will ever be able to visit in one lifetime. I'm not too concerned about seeing the rest of the world when I haven't even seen half or a quarter of what there is to see in the US.

I'm from america and I don't have a passport. But what someone said that america has alot of attractions is right

but 25% of america is still a big number i would say like 75 million

The whole point is that travel broadens the mind and allows you to see and experience other cultures than your own. By doing this you are less likely to think

1. that your own country is the best

2. that other countries are inferior

3. that the fictitious god is interested in your country specifically

4. that war a good idea if folks dont do as they are told

No, Americans don't need a passport to travel to those places. Because those countries that I listed are U.S territories. All you need is a driver's license or a birth certificate to prove that you are a US citizen. Its just like traveling from New York to LA by plane. Don't need a passport.

You can fly anywhere in the UK without a passport and its the same for most places around the world

Then explain why you think so and dont hide behind a personal remark like a coward

[Roy Mars III]

I don't have one. I live in Michigan, so I don't need one to go to Canada, and there's really no need unless you're leaving the continent. All you really need is a driver's license.

have you never wondered what life is like outside the US?

[Sarasmile]

I think anyone reading and/or posting on this forum from the US definitely wonders what life is like in other countries. If they didn't, they wouldn't watch BBUK and want to interact with British fans. If any other Americans are like me, I certainly couldn't afford to travel to Europe, or anywhere abroad. Car trips to other states are more affordable - and even those are rare nowadays!
Because there are so many European countries so close geographically, it does seem normal and expected that Europeans would travel to other countries and broaden their world wide view. In America, we can broaden our cultural experiences by visiting other states - there are so many differences between states it can seem like you're in a different country!

[Niall]

I'm not surprised to be honest, there's so much to see in the US if you think about it: Disney World & Florida, L.A/Hollywood, San Francisco, New York, Grand Cnayon, Yellowstone etc.

Hang on I just thought this, if you were a US citizen and you were flying out to Hawaii, would you need a passport or...?

No, because Hawaii is a US state. Its like any other state, examples Florida, California.
