Where's a good place to hide an ID so it can't be found in a search? As a woman, I know where I would put mine.

Better, ship a firearm/ammunition and seal the ID in the gun case since they always have to be locked during transport (and I
never use a TSA lock). I don't think any airport LEO would take kindly to a TSO insisting on having access to an unlocked/opened firearm case in the sterile area.

You could also FedEx the wallet to your destination...provided you don't mind driving to the airport without your DL on you.
Personally, since I wear an ID around my neck all day (yes,
3tal, on a lanyard
) and usually forget it's there when I get to the airport, I've never encountered the extra ID scrutiny when I show the govvie ID.
