[miranda1]

Hello!

My 2 younger siblings (17&13) and i will be taking a trip soon (domestic)... will my 13 yr old brother need an ID? the 17 yr old has a school ID with his pictures so im assuming that will be okay... My mom will be signing a letter staing she is aware of them travling with me. 

thanks !

Hello

from what I experienced before I turned 18 I didn't need any ID but I had a school ID just in case. when I went through security at that age all I had to do was tell the TSA agent my age or Date of birth depending on what they asked me and I was good to go they never stopped me like when I was 17 I was tall they didn't say are you sure your not 20 they were like great and on to the next person.

Hope this helps

Hi @miranda1, 

The 13 year-old won't need any ID, and they'll be find to travel with you, as they are both considered Young Travelers and not Unaccompanied Minors. Have a great trip!

Having the letter may ease your mind, and I've heard of other travelers bringing copies of birth certificates, but according to the guidelines you won't need those things.
