easyJet to require photographic identification on domestic flights
Message from easyland
From Monday 12 November, easyJet is introducing enhanced security measures at every airport and will require all passengers travelling on easyJet domestic flights to provide photographic identification (eg passport, national identity card or driving licence with photo) when they check in. It is essential that airlines are able to reconcile passengers to bookings, and ensure that the person who booked to go on a flight is the same person who actually travels.
Passengers on French domestic flights - ie between Nice and Geneva - will have to provide either a passport, national identity book, or a French family book.
The documentary requirements for passengers on International flights will remain as before (ie passports or national identity cards supported by any other relevant documentation such as visas).
The introduction of these measures goes over and above what is currently required by law. However, in light of the current security situation and the changing environment in which airlines are operating, easyJet believes that these new procedures are in the interests of passengers and airline staff alike.

There will be fun and games on Monday as most passengers will not be aware of easyjet’s latest rule.
