I do keep pics of birth certificates on my phone for airline purposes so I guess if someone ever asked I could use those.
The only time an airline needs that proof for a domestic flight isnif you’re on a special kid fare. If they did need it a picture of the BC wouldn’t do.
They asked me "how many ages 3-9" and I said one. They proceeded to charge me for 3 adults and one child.
I likely would charge the same way with an older looking older child.
Best to sidestep that with “the younger is 2 and the older is 8”.
It’s something like when I was 22 and the bouncer asked “are you 21?” and I answered “yes” because I figured that the important part is that I’m at least 21, and a “no” answer would have also been confusing. He then said “your id says you’re 22, why are you lying?” It had been an impossible question to answer with a yes or no lol. Thankfully I was working at a bar and was at the club with my bartender and other fellow employees and they convinced the bouncer that I was legit.
Sometimes ya just gotta answer more fully when you know what they really want to know.
The price difference between a child and adult ticket at
Disneyland really isn't that much.
True.
I wonder why Disney even offers cheaper tickets for kids. They don't for annual passes, and if they went to a standardized ticket then all these issues would go away...
Because they are being kind.
My granddaughter (2yo) informed them she was 8 when they asked. They grinned and sent her thru.
Yep. Totally normal of a little one. My then 2 year old (giant and strong but talked immaturely) sometimes said he was 2 and sometimes 5.
OP don’t borrow trouble. Assume all will be well. And I’d theres a hint of pushback just ask for a lead.
And don’t be embarrassed or let your daughter be. Be embarrassed FOR that cm if you must.
My son is shaving, has a deep voice, and is just about 6’. And he’s 14. He’s not embarrassed when people think he’s older, except a little a embarrassed for them.
Even at TSA he just told them his age when they asked for ID the last time. No issues.
