Are you REAL ID Ready

Beginning May 2025, every air traveler 18 years of age and older will need a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, state-issued enhanced driver’s license, or another acceptable form of ID to fly within the United States.

For more information, please contact the REAL ID Program Office at [email protected].

What Can I bring?

Planning ahead and packing properly can facilitate the screening process and ease your travel experience at the airport. For a complete list of items, visit TSA.gov

Even if an item is generally permitted, it may be subject to additional screening or not allowed through the checkpoint if it triggers an alarm during the screening process, appears to have been tampered with, or poses other security concerns. Read about civil penalties for prohibited items.
