I just used SWA the other night without showing my passport...Originally Posted by ToiletDuck
You must have a passport and you must have it on your person. To give you an idea I was going to jumpseat on southwest, sit in the back, when they asked for my passport. It was shortly after my truck had been broken into and was robbed. I had a new passport but different number. They wouldn't let me on the aircraft because the numbers didn't match even though my airline ID was valid, had a current valid passport, current DL, was in uniform, was current in CASS, and CASS had my picture up proving it was me even further. This was the only instance in which I was ever actually checked for it. However it is required.
