Question

Do i need a passport to fly internally in Britain (Edinburgh to London)?

Answer 1

No, just photographic Id of some sort.  They are quite picky though, so you might be better with a driving license or something.

Answer 2

Absolutely not.

It's a domestic flight, and as such is no different than going by car or train.

Not unless you're going outside the UK during the flight, in which case it would not be domestic.

You will however be required to provide proof of your identity, so a passport could be used.

As such, you are only required to carry a passport if you are travelling outside the national boundary.

It is quite feasible for someone to fly domestically and never held a passport.

Answer 3

no i dont think so

Answer 4

If you have a passport, take it . If not take some kind of ID. It is getting serious now for ID. Do not go to the airport without proof.

Answer 5

No but you need a form of accepted ID to board any plane (to prevent terrorist attacks and to prove it's you on the ticket!)

Answer 6

you only need a form of an photo id to prove its you.

Answer 7

We travel this route often, & yes you need passport.  It does depend on the airline, but I would definately take your passport . Better safe than sorry.

Answer 8

You WILL need some sort of photo ID check the web site of the airline you are travelling with. Many insist on a passport!

Answer 9

Yes, you either need a passport or I think some airlines may accept other photographic ID like a driving licence instead but you need to check with the individual airline.
