As the deadline for obtaining a REAL ID approaches on May 7, travelers are reminded about identification requirements for air travel. If individuals arrive without a REAL ID, they may use a passport, but not having any acceptable identification can lead to delays and additional scrutiny at security. Moreover, the U.S. passport card presents a cheaper alternative for domestic travel and certain crossings, but cannot be used for international flights. Understanding these requirements is crucial for smooth airport experiences post-deadline.
Without a REAL ID after May 7, travelers can use a passport, but without it or another acceptable ID, they risk delays and denial at security.
The U.S. passport card, a less expensive alternative to the passport book, allows for certain travel but cannot be used for international air travel.
