>Don’t Have Your Acceptable ID?
>In the event you arrive at the airport without acceptable identification (whether lost, stolen, or otherwise), you may still be allowed to fly.
>The TSA officer may ask you to complete an identity verification process which includes collecting information such as your name and current address to confirm your identity. If your identity is confirmed, you will be allowed to enter the screening checkpoint, where you may be subject to additional screening.
>You will not be allowed to enter the security checkpoint if you choose to not provide acceptable identification, you decline to cooperate with the identity verification process, or your identity cannot be confirmed.
>TSA recommends individuals without acceptable identification arrive at least three hours in advance of their flight time.
- superkuh 2y agoYes. This happened to me in 2019 flying from Minneapolis to Denver with family when I forgot my wallet (stupid, I know). I was taken aside and someone from homeland security in DC called on their phone and asked me a handful of questions about my life. Like what the church across the street from my apartment was called (I didn't know!). They eventually let me through the security check. I was really worried the entire trip but on the return flight I didn't have to do it again. But that was completely unintentional. I'd never intentionally try to fly when I don't have the required ID.
