REAL ID: Atlanta airport ready for travel changes as deadline arrives

The REAL ID deadline, set for May 7, 2025, requires U.S. travelers to have a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or another acceptable form of identification to board domestic flights and enter federal facilities. At Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the busiest airport in the world, travelers without a REAL ID will need to present alternative identification such as a passport. Georgia residents can obtain a REAL ID by visiting the Georgia Department of Driver Services, where they must provide documents proving identity, Social Security number, and two proofs of residency. The process to obtain a REAL ID can take up to 30 days, and it is recommended to apply well in advance of the deadline to avoid any travel disruptions.
