US warns airline passengers without REAL ID could be denied boarding starting May 7

The US Transportation Security Administration said on Friday it will begin enforcing long-delayed stricter ID requirements at US airports starting May 7 and warned passengers could be denied access to flights.

On May 7, TSA will no longer accept state-issued identifications that are not REAL ID compliant. Congress in 2005 approved new, stricter federal standards for issuing identification cards but enforcement has been pushed back repeatedly.
