Flying within the US question?

[yosh12]

Hi,

This is to all of you who have flown out of the US. We are flying out to Syracuse in September on Jet Blue to Orlando...

I have a passport but my wife does not, now my understanding is that all she needs is her drivers license and birth certificate....am I right?

Please get back to me so I can set her mind at ease.

Thanks

Since you are flying within the states and not crossing international borders that is all she needs.

Just flew from BUF to ORL end of May - that's all we needed, since none of us has passports. Kids only needed birth certificates. Happy travels!

When you are flying within the USA (ie both taking off and landing at a US airport) no proof of citizenship is necessary (and to be honest, no one cares...).


All you need is a government issued photo ID to show airport security.
