Sure.
I've never made a hotel reservation in my life. I just find one and walk into the lobby. Nor has anyone asked to see my plane ticket.
Maybe authorities are more paranoid now that there are throngs of terrorists just waiting for an opening to rush in and start mowing people down...
I really think it was the one way ticket that upset the applecart more than anything else, the lack of funds and reservations just added grist to the mill.
