Can a person in the USA fly with an expired driving license? - Unrecognizable person holding can of power drink while standing on parking lot near sport car

The company I work for has asked me to attend a training class on the other side of the country.

However my situation is my drivers license expired a few days ago. I do however have a separate printed email stating that the license has been renewed.

This drivers license is my only ID that shows both my name & photo.

Is it possible to be able to board a flight with the expired drivers license and the printed email showing that it was renewed?



Best Answer

The TSA person said to me that it was ok to use up to a year after expiration. She wanted to let me know that my license expired in case I didn't.

Answer 2

I have flown for years using my 4 plus years expired ID and my passports. I do however have a current one which I usually leave at home. As long as you haven't drastically changed in appearance or attempted to change your appearance ie... fake mustache, beard, hair pieces, fake nose, altered chin structure, fake eye inserts, and anything else... then you should be fine.
