When traveling internationally (Mexico or Bahamas), all U.S. citizens are required to have a valid passport booklet (with a minimum of 6 months left before expiration, if traveling to Mexico). International travelers under the age of eighteen (18) at the time of travel will need to check with the airline to see if they require a letter of permission from their parent(s) and/or guardian(s).
Non-U.S. citizens should contact their appropriate consulate for specific documentation requirements. If traveling within the United States (Hawaii, Puerto Rico, or Florida), travelers will need to provide a valid government-issued photo (REAL-ID UPDATE:
Starting May 7, 2025, every state and territory resident will need to present a
REAL ID compliant license/photo ID, boarding commercial aircraft for domestic travel). If you do not have a valid
passport booklet or
government-issued photo ID, we highly recommend applying now; refunds cannot be given to those who cannot travel due to a lack of proper/required documentation. We strongly recommend visiting
www.travel.state.gov for the most current travel documentation requirements.
