Travel within the United States will require government-issued
identification at all times as well as a paper or e-ticket
itinerary with a receipt. Because a boarding pass can only be
issued at the airport, passengers must check in at the ticket
counter or gate in order to board their flight.
Today's airport security measures can result in delays and long
lines and it's recommended that passengers arrive at least 90
minutes prior to departure for domestic flights and two hours for
international flights. Upon arrival at the airport all
passengers will be required to show their government-issued ID
(driver's license or passport) in order to check in. Please
note the airline carriers have imposed new luggage weight
restrictions and we recommend checking with the airline to confirm
their allowable luggage weight limits to avoid paying excess
baggage fees.
To access the latest information on travel worldwide from the U.S.
State Department, go to travel.state.gov and for up-to-date
security information go to www.tsa.gov.
It is recommended that non-U.S. residents traveling from abroad
contact their local consulate for further instructions prior to
departure.
