Does an 11 month old need a form of ID to fly?

[lauren170]

Domestically? If so where to you get it? I'm clueless here, sorry.

I brought a copy of B's birth certificate and the agent at the check luggage window (I forget the term for this) asked to see it but I've read that Southwest is the only airline that does this. No one else asked for ID.

Bring the birth certificate. They probably wont ask for it, but it will show you as a parent, and you have a photo id.

No. A photo copy of their birth certificate will do.

It's best to ask your airline. But a copy of the birth certificate should be enough.

Southwest will ask, always. I have never had any other domestic airlines ask, even with a 23 month old. We would always bring her passport or a copy of her birth certificate.

I hope that you are going someplace fun!

No.

^^^what fivedogs said^^^. I flew exclusively with DD as a lap child before she turned 2 and was often asked for her birth certificate on different airlines.

I've never been asked, but i always bring their passports. Better to bring a birth certificate/passport than not and have an issue.

We didn't need anything on our recent domestic flight. Dd is 2 so she had her own seat.

We didn't need one flying Delta this weekend. I didn't even think of it!

We've never been asked for domestic flights (unless you're connecting to an international flight).
