URGENT! Lost Passport, Traveling from NYC to Aruba Tomorrow

Just as the title says, I misplaced my passport and leave for Aruba tomorrow from NYC. What are my options?

Unless you find your passport. you in most likelihood will NOT be leaving for Aruba tomorrow. No passport = no int'l flight. Unlike for domestic flights and a missing ID, there are no exceptions to this rule. You need to apply for an emergency replacement passport. Contact the passport office or go to their website to see what the expedited options are. You may be able to get it done in a small number of days, but probably not by tomorrow.

Thank you for your reply. Do I have to contact the New York Passport Agency? I live in NYC, which is where it is located.
Please confirm.

Yes, but they won't be open until Tuesday.

Find your passport. You could get one if you were a government official traveling on official business (personal experience), but otherwise I think Tuesday is probably the earliest you can get it.

Welcome to FlyerTalk, qav337 and sorry to hear about your situation.


As it seems like you're looking to replace a US passport, we will move your thread over to the USA forum. Thanks. /JY1024, TravelBuzz moderator
