    check with the airline your traveliing with and also the airports your travelling to and from as they might have different answeres but to me its probably a yes as they wouldnt let an adult in our party travel from london to glasgow without a passport.
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
    Our thoughts are ever with you,Though you have passed away.And those who loved you dearly,
    Are thinking of you today.
  • Ive travelled from heathrow to manchester and stansted to blackpool without having to show my passport, so i doubt it....

    but i would still phone the airline to make sure

    We've often been asked for our children's passports on flights from London to Belfast, starting from when they were babies. Having said that I seem to remember forgetting the children's once, and being allowed to travel anyway. I'm not sure you could guarantee this though. You are not always asked on an internal flight for ID but you may be, and if you don't have it, then can be refused onto the flight

    I think that technically the requirement is for photo ID, but let's face it, a baby's not going to have a driving licence! Best thing is to check with the airports / airlines. Their websites are usually quite informative.
