OK. You need photo-id to get your boarding pass. Since I always use e-tickets, the boarding pass is the only "paper" involved.Under normal circumstances for flights within the US the FAA seems not to require ANY form of ID. It's many of the *airlines* that require ID, supposedly in the name of security, but mainly to keep people from using other people's tickets. Continental does not enforce an ID requirement at SFO, for instance. You stick your credit or frequent flyer card in the machine and it spits out your boarding pass, which you then hand to the gate agent.
some airlines allow you to check-in for flights at home (as well as using these e-machines). It will be interesting to see if they are unable to use these machines and services due to (new) FAA requirements. - Jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared () puck nether net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
