domestic flights

[Geordie&Bairn]

we want to fly up to newcastle for my cousins wedding the thing is we will be in Cornwall the day before it as i stupidly booked out holiday to end the day before her wedding
its a hell of a long way to drive and bloody expensive petrol wise
ive gor the form and photos to send of for a passport but its will of course not be back in time

ive heard that babies can fly domestic without a passport is this true we need to book the tickets but dont want to if not.
i emailed easyjet asking them but they sent back a reply that did not answer the question

anyone know???????

Adults dont need a passport to fly domestic just photo ID but not sure about babies.

I would contact the airline that you are intending to fly with and find out from them, unless you are wanting to fly with Easyjet then I would contact them again and ask them to explain more clearly.

Could you go to the passport office and get a passport the same day for Collier, I know you can do this up north as I went to the Durham office to get my passport, surely there must be a passport office near by if you need to get one for him?

You don't need a passport for internal/domestic flights. For adults a drives licence with photo on it is enough. Babies don't need a passport or ID on Easy Jet domestic flights.

Have a read on the EasyJet site about ID for children. Its it there to be found. Wait I'll go find it for you

Copy and paste from Easy Jet info....

The airline requires all passengers to provide photographic ID at check-in on all flights including domestic services. Passengers who use the online check-in service will be required to provide photographic ID at the security gate and again at the boarding gate.

Please see Infants and Children section below for exceptions to ID requirements relating to children.

Please note: Passengers, other than British or Irish nationals, travelling between the UK and the Republic of Ireland, are required to produce a valid passport and any associated relevant travel documentation.

13 Infants and children - Special ID requirements

Children under 16 years of age travelling on UK, Italian, Spanish, or French domestic flights can travel without photo identification provided that they are travelling with an accompanying adult.
