THE REAL ID ACT
REAL ID
Beginning October 1, 2020, each traveler must present a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, state-issued enhanced driver’s license, or another acceptable form of identification, to fly within the United States.
Individuals who are unable to verify their identity will not be permitted to enter the TSA checkpoint and will not be allowed to fly.
Other acceptable forms of ID, such as state-issued-enhanced driver's licence, valid passport, or U.S. military ID will be mandatory for air travel.
CHECK YOUR STATE AGENCY
REAL ID-compliant licenses are marked by a star on the top of the card. Michigan, Vermont, Minnesota and New York states issue REAL ID and state-issued enhanced driver’s licenses, both of which are acceptable. Washington state issues enhanced driver’s licenses only.

UNITED KINGDOM E-PASSPORT GATES
ePassport Gates
US passport holders from the United States (and six other countries; Australia, Canada. Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea) can now use the automated “ePassort Gates” (where available) when arriving in the UK.
These passengers can now avoid potential wait times at immigration by inserting their passport into the machines, having their photograph taken and then entering the country automatically without any human interaction. Best of all, there’s no registration required, though-travelers. Passengers under age 12 years are not permitted to use the ePassport gates.
The UK has also done away with paper landing cards. Regardless if you have access to ePassport gates, you’ll no longer have to complete personal details by hand each time you enter the United Kingdom.
UK - Departure Tax (Revised: 03/15/19)
UNITED KINGDOM DEPARTURE TAX
United Kingdom Departure Tax - AA Non-Rev Travelers
March 15, 2019 - Effective immediately, if you are accommodated in a premium cabin, you will pay the same, lower tax rate as you would in Main Cabin. This update does not affect the cost of parent (D2P) or guest (D3) travel. The change is effective now, however, the Travel Planner does not yet reflect it yet (so you won't see it reflected in your estimated charges) as of now.

EUROPEAN TRAVEL INFORMATION
AND AUTHORIZATION SYSTEM
Beginning in 2021, visitors from the United States, along with dozens of other nations, will be required to complete an online application for something called an ETIAS, from “European Travel Information and Authorization System.”
It’s essentially the reciprocal of the ESTA authorization required of EU nationals visiting the US: not strictly a visa, but a Registration..
Once it is implemented, visitors from 60 countries will be eligible to apply for ETIAS online. The system will serve as a pre-screen for travelers entering from visa-waiver countries, and anyone from one of those countries will need to have a valid ETIAS authorization and passport when arriving at any EU member country’s borders.
ETIAS will not require formal interviews,
nor any of the rigmarole involved when
visiting a nation that requires an actual
visa, like for example China.
You should be able to complete the online up the submission in about 10 minutes, providing your personal details, passport information, date of birth, country of residence and answering a few questions related to criminal history and travel to conflict zones.
Approval (or refusal) will be sent via email.
COST & VALIDITY
ETIAS VISA WAIVER FOR AMERICANS
Effective 2021 U.S. citizens traveling to Europe will be required to apply for an ETIAS. (European Travel Information and Authorization System) Visa Waiver.
Similar to other countries and regions in the world, Europe has recently decided to improve its security level to avoid any further problems with illegal immigration and terrorism.
This means that from 2021, all Americans traveling to a European Country in the SCHENGEN ZONE will require an ETIAS.
_____________________________________________
COST AND VALIDITY
It will cost 7 euros, or about $7.85
at current rates, and will apply to travelers between 18 and 70 years old.
Once obtained, it will “allow its holder to
stay in 26 different countries in Europe for a period of up to 90 days in any 180-day period.
It is valid for 3 years from the date of
issuance or until the expiry date of the passport, whichever comes first.
_____________________________________________
ETIAS does not apply to the United Kingdom, which is not one of the countries in the Schengen Area.
The UK is weeks away from possibly leaving the European Union without a negotiated exit agreement, the so-called “no deal Brexit” that might result in serious disruptions to travel.
