school ID isn't a real ID. it has to be state issued! at least u were smart enough to ask this a month beore your trip. go to the DMV and tell them u want a state issued ID! you should get one within a week. Why did you guys give me 5 thumbs down! I tried to get on a plane with school ID when I was flying to Houstaon, and they wouldn't let me, so I had to use my passport!

there's no need to. chidlren under the age of 18 do not need any form of ID when flying DOMESTICALLY. and no matter what your age everyone needs a passport to fly INTERNATIONALLY.

" Indiana Jones" is correct. See site below and read the first line.

If it is a domestic flight then yes, you can use it. TSA doesn't have specific ID requirements for minors, so if they ask you to show one, your school ID should be ok. School IDs probably already have your full name and a photo already. It is better to bring the one from the current school year though. It just depends on if they ask. If you are flying with your parent(s) then the likelyhood of being asked is a lot smaller than flying by yourself. Also, that website is geared towards 18+ adults, but it doesn't say anything about minors. So, it doesn't necessarily mean no.
