The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will enforce Real ID requirements at U.S. airports starting May 7. Currently, 81% of individuals at airport checkpoints possess Real ID-compliant identification. These IDs, marked with a gold or black star or a yellow bear in California, are essential for domestic U.S. flights. Travelers over 18 must have a Real ID or an alternative like a U.S. passport, a green card, or a trusted traveler ID. If travelers lack these documents, they may face additional screening and potential delays at security checkpoints. The TSA advises arriving at least three hours early for flights without a Real ID. Appointments for updating licenses are recommended, though availability is limited.

Deadline for Real ID is May 7. You’ve got one month to update your ID if you haven’t already. Otherwise, it could be a lot harder to fly.
