US Airways is predatory. My advice: Do not fly on US Airways.

. .. James Anatidae wrote: "James Anatidae" wrote in message ... This doesn't make sense to me, either. I have never heard of needing a birth certificate for domestic air travel. Oops, I just realized I misread the guy's rant. So I looked the information on the State Department website. http://travel.state.gov/jamaica.html "U.S. citizens traveling as tourists may enter Jamaica with either a U.S. passport or a certified U.S. birth certificate and current, government issued photo identification. Persons traveling with U.S. passports tend to encounter fewer difficulties upon departure than those who choose to use other documents. Visitors must have a return ticket and be able to show sufficient funds for their visit. " But I can't help but wonder why he didn't just pay $85 for a passport and save himself all the bother of running around after birth certificates. In most cases you will need a birth certificate to get the passport. I'm quite aware of that, as I have two of them (dual citizenship has its perks). I just feel it's a better idea to have a passport, due to a birth certificate's not being recognized everywhere, plus being able to use a passport as a extra ID. |

This is a family that was going to Jamaica. No need for passports. No problem if they look like the standard (white) American family and have id and certified birth certificates. Why get a passport if one is not needed? Maybe they wanted to save money. After all, they had traveled to Mexico before using the birth certs. |
