International Travel

Passports are required for all passengers embarking on international travel.  It is required to have at least 6 months remaining before passport expiration when traveling.  Passengers may be denied country entrance or denied boarding if any portion of travel is within 6 months of the passport expiration date.

Condition of passports

In addition to monitoring your passport expiration date, it is important to ensure that your passport is in good condition.  Airlines may deny boarding if your passport is not in good condition meaning that the passport is damaged beyond normal wear & tear and/or there is evidence of material alterations.  Examples of conditions of passports that may result in denied boarding include passports with significant tears, holes or stains, as well as any changes, obliterations or alterations, or any other damage that affects the integrity of the passport and/or the identification of the holder, such as the name, date of birth, citizenship and document number. If a passport has faded data, is missing data or severely torn, has cut or chewed pages or is missing a cover, missing a picture, requires tape or staples to hold it together, or has been substantially damaged by liquids, chemicals or fire, you may be denied boarding.

Visa requirements vary by country.  Visit the US State Department for more information on specific country requirements.

Domestic Travel

Soon driver's licenses from New York, Louisiana, Minnesota and New Hampshire will no longer be acceptable forms of ID for domestic air travel.  Due to the Real ID Act, residents of these states will be required to provide alternate forms of ID when conducting air travel domestically.  Acceptable forms of ID include passports, passport cards, permanent resident cards, US military IDs, and DHS trusted traveler cards such as Global Entry or NEXUS. 

Children under the age of 18 traveling with a companion do not require identification for domestic travel.  Passports are required for all passengers, including children, embarking on international travel.
