I don't think you need a passport to fly domestic. If you have a drivers license, that will probably be ok. Call the airport first to check.

If you ticketed by the airline then you don't actually need any ID for domestic travel.
For E-Ticket travel then you will be required to provide ID at the desk along with your reservation. Identification must be of the recognised variety much the same as if asked by a bank ie: driving license (Both Parts) etc
You old passport by the way will not be accepted as it is out of date!
Enjoy!

to fly internally in the uk you just need proof of ID with a photo e.g. your drivers licence. Good Luck

No-no

If you're British and you are flying inside UK, you don't need a passport. But I think any official document with a photograph will do the same as a passport.
I know that in some cases you can ask to have your passport done in one day, if it is an emergency. But just in case, I would contact the airline and ask them if I would really need my passport.

Good luck!

Since when do you need a passport to travel within the UK?

Cap10kirk

any photographic id that is accepted by the airline, you don't need a passport for this flight

Do you need a passport considering both places are in the uk?

If it's a British airline then you could probably get away with a photo drivers license.

Anyone else, once the aircraft is off the ground you are in another country, so Ryanair is Irish Republic terretory once airbourn....

Check with your carrier.

any photographic id should do, fone the airline and find out what they accept, usualy a driving licence or a work i.d card can be accepted too.and just take loads of i,d with you incase they interegate ya

You do not need a passport as long as you are British

want to know a secret, you can use a library card as a form of id! it is true. but doing so would cause you to get extra security screening. you should be fine, but call your AIRLINE before the flight, not the airport, they are just gunna tell u to call ur airline.

lairdpleng

No but you should be able to use your driving licence if it's in internal flight. I'm nto 100% sure so call the airport first and ask!

no but you can use a photo driving licence or some other types of photo id when travelling within the uk

As far as I know internal flights you can use any photographic ID, but that may have changed of late with terrorist stuff. I know the USA changed their policies, because the 9/11 flights were internal.

Good luck

If you have an email confermation, check on there too, it should say!! Also take the card you booked on!!!

Phone the airport just to check, but I think you can use any form of photo ID, like your drivers license.

Narky

Do as Roma says. If its an internal flight I don't think you absolutely need a passport by law... as you aren't passing any foreign ports as such... with it all being UK.

Check with airport/airline though + if you can't use old passport... take as much current ID as possible, inc Photographic id of all kinds.

ANF

Contact the airline you are flying with and ask what alternative ID they will accept. As it is internal then you should be OK.

*************

you can use a drivers license on domestic flights

jan h

Probably not. Call your flight operator and ask what Id they would accept for internal flights. A drivers liscense may suffice if you are a UK citizen or some other form of photographic ID. Good luck and enjoy your flight.

I dont think you need a passport? ID should work fine, I know when I did an internal flight in Australia I only needed to show some ID, dont know if that is the same story over here though? Best to phone your flight carrier and ask:)
