Yes you can and very easily if you have a passport, passport card, military ID, Merchant Mariner's document and maybe something else.
I have also heard that you can still fly if you have an SS card, bills, and various other things to prove who you are. It will take you a lot longer to get past TSA, though.
Still, we've had 20 YEARS to get our act together and get some form of legitimate identification. TWENTY YEARS!
Still, there are people that are going to try (possibly successfully) by showing all sorts of paperwork. That's all well and good until you consider what that is going to do to the REST of us who are behind you in line, IDs out and trying to board a flight to wherever. We're going to have to stand there while the idiot fiddlefarts around and the rest of us have to stand there and wait for his bull$hit.
TSA really isn't too bad for the most part. Things generally go through clickety-click. Then comes the a$$hole that never had time in the past 20 years to get his act together and he's holding us up.
What ought to happen to him is he goes to the end of the line and after everyone with their IDs squared away go through THEN and only then can they deal with the people that have not bothered to get a legitimate ID.

The reason we do not have a 'real id' driver's license, is because there are enough of us who oppose it. It is not a case of 'get our act together,' but a case of I Will Not. Rather than petition penndot to switch over, we should be getting on congress to remove this baloney law.
ReplyDeleteGranted it IS a bull$hit law but it is what it is. The part that pisses me off is when we get stuck behind some dimwit that was too stupid to plan ahead. Now if the person was an honest rebel I might be willing to honor it and maybe even stick up for him.
ReplyDeleteIve got a passport, retired mil ID, and a valid TWIC card.
ReplyDeleteI'm OK

Your TWIC doesn't let you fly. It DOES give you a known traveler number so when you give it to the airline you get TSA precheck which is a good deal.
