The last of the regulations seems to imply that it is possible to fly internationally without an ID. I have no idea what you would accomplish by boarding an internation airplane without an ID, because you will get sent back once you get there. There is no way the other country will accept you without a passport.
- ryanwaggoner 17y agoI'm sure there is some procedure for handling citizens who have lost their passports.
- arjunnarayan 17y agoYes, but it involves contacting your nearest consulate/embassy before boarding the plane. They normally verify some stuff internally (which is why it helps immensely to have photocopies that speed up the process as that contains the relevant numbers/barcodes that allow them to look you up quickly) and then they give you an "emergency travel document" or a new passport, depending on the situation. The ETD lets you travel back to your home country and then handle things from there.
- miracle 17y agoIf you have lost your passport, you have to go to a police station and make a claim. You can only board the plane with that claim (and there is normaly a police station on every major airport) And PS: I hope that they wouldn't let in the ignorant author of the article in without a valid passport.
