Does a Canadian need a passport to fly from one US city to another?

Question

hi. im planning a trip with a friend and we want to fly from spokane wa. to las vegas. i know we can get across the canada/us boarder with just a drivers licence and a birth certificate, but can we fly from one state to another with that same identification, or do we need passports? thanx all!

Answer 1

You should not need a passport to fly domestic within the US... Now with that being said I had friends that flew from Minneapolis to Orlando and the security guy at the airport gave them a hard time demanding their passports.  It took awhile for my friend to get it through that they did not need a passport as they where flying domestic from one US city to another US city and not internationally back to Canada.
