Unfortunately for him, I was employed in the flight booking business at the time, and with Ethiopian being one of only 3 major African airlines at the time, news of inaugural flights to the US from an African Star Alliance member, is exactly the kind of thing that would hit my inbox, and maybe bring about an office visit from the airline reps.
The passengers' details would be on the flight manifest, and if they weren't, the airline would be heavily fined. | | | | | I meant it would be hard to prove they deliberately lost their id?

In any case, if they had, the cleaning crew surely would have found them.

Are you guys trolling? All 7 of them coincidentally lost their passports on the way to claim asylum!?
They didn't 'pull a Nureyev'. They deliberately destroyed their ids with the intention of getting asylum status that they otherwise would not be granted if they had to show their real identities. It's not so hard to understand..and it shows the ridiculous gaping loophole in Schengen immigration policy which is constantly exploited by economic migrants. And terrorists.

I personally suspect they thought it was a good moment to deflect, nothing more. But maybe they have good reasons, who knows.
Either you are so condescending and ultimately racist, or you are trolling. Seriously.

1. They reportedly arrived at the desk without ID or travel documentation.
2. A spokeswoman for Ethiopian Airlines this morning insisted that all passengers on the flight had full legal documents when they boarded in Addis Ababa but said that the airline does not comment on individual cases.
All of the passenger details of everyone on that flight, would be on the flight manifest, so the information would have been freely available to the immigration managers at Dublin. as the flight was en route to the US, I cannot emphasise enough, how many government agencies would have trawled through the passenger list. If, as is claimed, these passengers claimed to not have their documents, it would take all of a couple of minutes to identify them, and they would most definitely have been identified when the remaining passngers reboarded for the onward flight.
What is so difficult to understand about this?
Btw, don't forget to set your Google search to 2015 if you attempt to find the answer. |

Which country would accept it as proof of ID for any passenger, let alone one who's probably a foreigner, who wants to enter the country?

They're covered by legislation and best practice procedures. Identification of a passenger wishing to enter the US is carried out repeatedly from the initial booking process, through to visa application or the Visa Waiver programme, and to the final flight manifest. At any point in that process, the US can refuse entry to a passenger.

Same as your credit cxrd or your IP address can be used as evidence if you are suspected of illegal activity.
