I never buy a bag without a zipped outside pocket which I use for that purpose.

Oodles if you Google ‘bag organiser ‘ or ‘bag insert’ you will find millions of options to pop inside your usual handbag.
All shapes , sizes, colours fabrics etc to fit in every conceivable bag.
Makes finding your stuff quick and easy.

Locally there are few busses but have been away a few times in the last few months and have been using my pass a lot. I've seen people with their pass on a lanyard, and having it in a little case but don't fancy a lanyard and discovered about the case when I picked up a lady's who had dropped hers in the queue
I've been using an old phone Cas which has a long strap. I can pop the pass in a little pocket on the outside, but my phone doesn't fit it any more and I use it for maps and for the bus tracker app so. Would like a bigger (but still small) bag that I could easily access to pop it away safely when I saw the bus coming which had a little pocket i could easily pop the pass back into when I have got on, with no fuss, don't want to hold the queue up while I fumble to put it away safely and pack up my bags. It would be useful on the train or tube too, I once. Lost a ticket in between the tube station and the train station
