"So... Please explain it then."
Enter airport. Walk to departures agent of your airline and explain that you forgot your ID and there is no way that someone can bring it to you, or that you can retrieve it, in time to make the flight.
You get extra screening and a specially marked boarding pass and you get on the plane with everyone else.
My wife did this as recently as 12 months ago. SFO->MSP.
YMMV. IANAL.
- mynameisvlad 6y agoYou know very well that that's not what "explain it" means. If you think the process isn't a secret, then find a document detailing the entire process, with specifics, end to end. What happens in the extra screening? Is it the same throughout the country? What might vary in the process (YMMV, after all), etc. You have a purely anecdotal account of what can happen at an airport that isn't even staffed by the TSA (https://www.flysfo.com/about-sfo/safety-security https://www.flysfo.com/about-sfo/safety-security). What everyone else is looking for is a specific, detailed, transparent description of the entire process.
