If you’ve got a domestic trip on the horizon—or even just a future travel dream—it’s time to check your driver’s license. Starting May 7, 2025, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will require most travelers 18 and older to present a REAL ID (or another acceptable form of identification, like a passport) to board federally regulated domestic flights.
OK, you’ve procrastinated long enough. I know spending the better part of the morning at the DMV can be a pain in the rear but it’s time to get your REAL ID.
