But then, of course, we come to the question of whether or not there's a Constitutional right to fly. We obviously have a right to travel, but the conveyance itself isn't really specified. If aircraft are disallowed there are still a number of other conveyances available. They just might not be as efficient.
If you can't (or won't) drive, it's just about foot travel left for you. Amtrak requires ID to get a ticket, and I believe the bus lines do that too. So without ID, you can no longer travel in the USA.
