As far I know, this is not well known, but some folks who went to XXX last summer flew with as little as an address label from a magazine as ID. In both directions!"
Has anyone tried the magazine label?
I've flown with an frequent flyer card alone on a return ticket. You get SSSS'd (I can appreciate the logic under these circumstances). What are they going to do with you? If you lose your ID while you're travelling (which I am apparently pretty good at) what else can you do? They aren't going to deny you the ability to get back to your home. I don't know what they would do on a departure from your hometown though?
