Passport Rules for American Travelling By Air Is Relaxed
Washington has modified and relaxed the need for an American traveller to have a passport for air travel to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean. To help relieve a massive backlog of passports awaiting processing these latest rules allow travels from now until the end of September, 2007.
New requirements require that air travellers must prove they submitted an application plus carry a photo ID. Dates for land travellers remains at January 2008 but according to Canada/USA negotiations, plans are underway to extend this date to June 1 2009.
Apply for your passport soon – once you have proof of your application you can continue to enjoy a visit t
o Canada by land, air or sea.
Note: If you travel cross border by land, no passport is necessary but if you must return by air for an emergency, you may not be allowed into the USA if you have not previously applied for a passport.
Canada has also relaxed their rules as a result of the backlog but passports are still required – an application receipt is not enough. Many promos covering this subject are available on Google.com.
