TRAVEL PREPARATION
As you prepare for your upcoming trip to Nashville, we want to remind you of the new REAL ID Act that began in May. Following the REAL ID Requirements will be crucial for a smooth and hassle-free air travel experience.
What is REAL ID?
The REAL ID Act establishes minimum security standards for state-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards.
Starting May 7, 2025, travelers must present a REAL ID-compliant ID or an accepted alternative, such as a passport, to board domestic flights within the United States.
REAL ID Checklist
Visit the official TSA Website for details on accepted IDs and further guidance.
- Check Your ID: Look for a star at the top of your driver’s license or state ID. If it’s there, your ID is REAL-ID compliant.
- Need an Update? If your current ID is not compliant, visit your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to obtain a REAL ID. Bring the necessary documents such as proof of identity, residency, and Social Security number.
- Alternative Documents: If you prefer not to use a REAL ID, ensure you have a valid passport or another TSA-accepted form of identification.
