I'm flying with my 21 month old next month within the United States. Do I need to provide any identification paperwork for my daughter? I'm assuming a birth certificate maybe? I can't think of what else I could provide since we don't need a passport for where we are traveling.

I always have my child's birth certificate with me and also i bring along his school ID. It has been a requirement also in the airport.

Hi Kemak, have a wonderful trio...I When I worked with a airine 7 years ago, it was always the policy of the airline. so what I suggest you do is to call the airline you are travelling with and they will give you all the information you will need...and what acceptable...
