Will a student ID be sufficient enough to board an airplane?

Travel Tips
If you're 18 years old or older, you are supposed to have a government-issued photo ID as in a state ID, driver's license, or passport even for a domestic flight.

You can take a chance on the airline counter agent letting you slide with your student ID, but don't risk it if you don't have to. It really depends on who you get at the counter, if they're willing to bend the rules. Maybe they'll just code your bording pass for a secondary search at the security checkpoint. If you're traveling from Atlanta, there's a Denied Boarding Desk in that airport can help you get on the plane

depends on the Airline and obviously where u are travelling, I presume u mean domestic? well in that case ur best to ring the airline to double check, as ive heard cases where this student tried to board with a student card with his photo on it, and they denied him boarding saying it wasn't sufficient ID.
so ring ring ring, each airline has their own policy, they vary.

If you are over 18, just get a state ID card or a driver's license. It will save you any hassle at the airport. Also, if you do not have proper ID, you will be searched at the checkpoint.
yes if it is domestic. if its international, you need a passport
A student ID is not enough. You must have a government-issued ID. A student ID is issued by the school and not the government.
