Can I fly with my mobile ID?
Can I fly with my mobile ID? If you're looking to use Mobile ID to get through the airport, you'll also need to acquire TSA PreCheck. This program, which allows travelers to speed through security, is available by application only. Those with TSA PreCheck can generally expect to pass through a separate security line.
Do airports accept ID on iPhone?
At select Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoints, you can use your iPhone or Apple Watch to present your license or ID.
How does TSA check your ID?
The officer will insert each photo ID into the CAT unit where the ID is scanned and analyzed. CAT is linked electronically to the Secure Flight database, which confirms travelers' flight details, ensuring they are ticketed for travel that day.
How do you fly when you lost your wallet?
Come prepared with additional forms of identification (credit card, photo business card, student ID, even mail or prescription medication with your name and address). Once the airline representative is satisfied that you are who you say you are, they will issue a boarding pass with a note that you don't have an ID.
