Pristine Agency Reviews Changes in Airline Security for 2016In 2016, flying is going to be more difficult in some cities and territories due to changes in boarding and airline security. Pristine Agency addresses these changes and what they may mean to Americans traveling by air.
By: Pristine Agency, Henderson, NV Starting in 2016, some states will no longer accept a traditional driver's license for boarding. Instead, an Enhanced Driver's License or other REAL ID form of identification will be required for boarding flights. States and territories who will see these changes in 2016 are those which still do not have IDs which are considered compliant with the standards set by the REAL ID Act of 2005 and include the states/territories of New Hampshire, Minnesota, New York, Louisiana and American Samoa. People traveling by plane in these areas will be required to not only have their ID but also will be required to carry passports or another form of approved identification, even if traveling within the United States. Those who do not have this additional ID can be denied boarding. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's FAQ, compliant IDs are those which include "machine-readable technology." These and other concerns regarding the upcoming changes in airline security are addressed in more detail on the Department of Homeland Security's website.
