TSA Begs Travelers to Stop Presenting a Costco Membership Card Instead of a Passport
""We love hotdogs and rotisserie chickens as much as the next person, but please stop telling people their Costco card counts as a REAL ID because it absolutely does not.""
""The agency's truth bomb comes a month after the federal government finally carried out its years-long threat of requiring a REAL ID - a state ID authenticated along with legal proof of residence - to board even domestic flights.""
Recently, the TSA emphasized that a Costco Membership card is not a valid ID for boarding flights, following a wave of inquiries and internet rumors suggesting its legitimacy. This clarification arose amidst the implementation of the REAL ID requirement, which mandates a government-issued identification verified with proof of residence to fly domestically. The misconception likely stemmed from misleading online articles. Despite past criticism of the TSA, their warning against using a Costco card for travel is accurate and cautionary for travelers.
