is there anyway

[brittanyherndon]

is there anyway to get on a plan form orlando to huston with out a FL ID if you are over 18

 

[cepmom]

you have to have some kind of government issued photo ID to board any plane. A passport, drivers license, state ID would work.

I have gotten on a plane ONCE without ID. Last December while in NYC for the weekend, my wallet was stolen the night before my flight home. I had to show my police report which stated that my ID was stolen to both the check-in clerk and the security. I was also immediately put into secondary screening. It was actually quite a bit easier than I assumed it would have been, but I am also a frequent flyer on that airline, so that may have helped.

It doesn't make any difference what state you are flying from and too. Just show your driver's license from your home state.

 

[C.Ann]

Why don't you have a photo ID? You need one to get on a plane anywhere - not just Orlando to Houston..

 

[funkychunkymonkey]

Heres another question,
Will they give you grief if its expired? (only a month)

 

[kim929]

I believe it has to be a valid photo id or drivers license.

ID Requirements for Airport Checkpoints

Airtravel
Identity Matters

Effective June 21, 2008, adult passengers (18 and over) are required to show a U.S. federal or state-issued photo ID that contains the following: name, date of birth, gender, expiration date and a tamper-resistant feature in order to be allowed to go through the checkpoint and onto their flight.

Passengers who do not or cannot present an acceptable ID will have to provide information to the Transportation Security Officer performing Travel Document Checking duties in order to verify their identity. Passengers who are cleared through this process may be subject to additional screening. Passengers whose identity cannot be verified by TSA may not be allowed to go through the checkpoint or onto an airplane.

Acceptable IDs include:
Acceptable Documents

* U.S. passport
* U.S. passport card
* DHS "Trusted Traveler" cards (NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST)
* U.S. Military ID (active duty or retired military and their dependents)
* Permanent Resident Card
* Border Crossing Card
* DHS-designated enhanced driver's license
* Drivers Licenses or other state photo identity cards issued by Department of Motor Vehicles (or equivalent) that meets REAL ID benchmarks (All states are currently in compliance)
* A Native American Tribal Photo ID
* An airline or airport-issued ID (if issued under a TSA-approved security plan)
* A foreign government-issued passport
* Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) card
* Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC)

Non-US/Canadian citizens are not required to carry their passports if they have documents issued by the U.S. government such as Permanent Resident Cards. Those who do not should be carrying their passports while visiting the U.S.

This standardization of the list of accepted documents better aligns TSA with other DHS components, including Customs and Border Protection, and REAL ID benchmarks.

No reason not to have ID IMO. I took my 14 year old to get picture ID at the dept. of motor vehicles. (He was flying with unrelated adults so he needed his own ID.) I paid $10 (I think) showed his birth certificate and social security number, they took his picture and sent me out with a paper copy that day. The "card" took another week or two to arrive, but the paper copy would have sufficed for ID.

I agree. I know what ID you're talking about, as I had one before I had my license. There's no reason not to have one.

My wallet was stolen a week before our last trip to WDW in September. I called TSA and was told that although my temporary license would probably be accepted, it would be up to the local security agent at my gate to make that decision. All acceptable forms of ID include the Real ID benchmark and the paper temporary license didn't have that of course.

I didn't have a current passport and not enough time to get one, but I was able to get a new military ID (my DH is retired AF), so I just used that and it was never questioned.

They won't "give you grief," but they probably won't let you board.

Why don't you just go down Monday and get it taken care of? Have you been driving around with no license? You could get in a bit of trouble if you ever got stopped.
Also, it's been 2 weeks now. I would have made that a top priority.

No. You are an adult. You need a government issued ID.

I would have done it the next day!

You may even be able to do it on-line. I know that you can in NYS.

A military dependent ID card (DD Form 1173) is one of the acceptable forms of official ID listed. It's issued by the government. Why would it be questioned?

Actually, your son didn't need any ID. As long as they are flying within the US, children under 18 do not need any form of ID - it doesn't matter if they are flying with family or unrelated adults.

Not that it is a bad thing to have ID.

OP - your school ID is not considered acceptable ID. You can, however, get through without ID (as was posted by a PP). Read the relevant paragraph:

Passengers who do not or cannot present an acceptable ID will have to provide information to the Transportation Security Officer performing Travel Document Checking duties in order to verify their identity. Passengers who are cleared through this process may be subject to additional screening. Passengers whose identity cannot be verified by TSA may not be allowed to go through the checkpoint or onto an airplane.

You will NOT be able to board without it!
