Get ready for some travel changes at El Paso International Airport—starting in February, a new fee for those without Real IDs might catch you off guard.
Before you leave for the airport on your next adventure scan your suitcase and carry-on bag to make sure none of these ten items will be interrupting your journey through TSA security.
You now need a Real ID to do several things including travel by air. You aren't totally hosed if you haven't gotten one yet though, there are ways to get around this. Several other documents will work if you don't yet have the new "Real ID".
Texas travelers who might be wondering if they will be pulled out of line for additional TSA screening can now find that information on their boarding pass.
Look around right now and you'll probably see more out-of-state license plates than usual and most of them are probably headed to Padre for Spring Break. We've got a record number of spring breakers traveling through Texas this month, and that could mean slow-going for all of us.
Air travel just got more exciting, and believe me, when you get the rundown of what's acceptable to now bring on board, you have to wonder if the panel discussion wasn't carried out over cocktails.
