[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yup, it is absolutely 100% not possible for an international flight.  We tried, when my father was very ill and we were trying to work a flight and not have to bring him to the airport until the last minute, to arrange something, TSA was very clear...no way, no how.

On the other hand, from a safety perspective, it's good to know. [/quote]

This is not true.  The TSA was wrong (not surprising).

I'm the poster who routinely checks in for an international flights online.  You do NOT need to show your passport at the airport to check in.  [/quote]

I fly pretty regularly and have never been able to check bags without a passport.  I'm not flying monthly, but have flown internationally 6 times this year.  What airport are you flying out of?  IAD direct or DCA with a connection?[/quote]

My company is based on NYC, so a lot of times it's JFK.  Once IAD.

I don't normally check bags, though, so I do online check in, print my boarding pass, and head through security.

I think that is the difference.  OP asked about checking bags.  [/quote]

OP should still be able to use the kiosk to check bags, swiping each passengers passport.  [/quote]

She could - but again, this is if she wanted to let her child sleep.  I would say, that is not the best idea.  I would arrive with my kids tired and ready to sleep on the plane.  [/quote]

I don't travel overseas with my child (I am not a masochist), but it can be done, if she really wants to.  I agree that it's best to have them tired when they get to the airport.[/quote]
