Question about young travelers & airline rules...

How do airlines deal with teenagers who do not have picture ID? Does anyone have experience with this? A 15-year old family member is coming to visit me.

1. We had photo school ids in high school.
Most states will give you an id, which looks like a driver's license but is not.

2. Not sure,
probably would need an adult with them to get the tickets at the counter & to get through security. Once they are through the metal detector, they don't need ID

3. usually, they will accept photo id from a related adult
who drops them off at the airport.

4. a 15 year old can get a passport
It's easy to get a passport now, just go to the post office and get the form, and they'll help the applicant with it. So even if the teens can't get a state ID/learner's permit, they can get passports which are the best form of photo ID anyway in airports.
