There's a lot of interest these days in the federal REAL ID deadline on May 7. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has set that as the date when you'll need to comply with federal REAL ID requirements to board domestic airline flights and access certain federal facilities.
We're receiving plenty of questions from the public and news media about about what this deadline means and what people need to be ready to fly next month. While there are a number options available to be in compliance, as detailed in this U.S. Department of Homeland Security list of frequently asked questions, we have a sure thing for you: the Arizona Travel ID.
Bill Lamoreaux, our lead communicator on Motor Vehicle Division matters including Travel ID, joins On the Road With ADOT this week with even more timely informatino as May 7 approaches. Spend a few minutes listening to Bill chat with host Doug Nintzel and you can be off to a flying start when the federal REAL ID deadline arrives.
