Secure Flight
Secure Flight TSA requirements
What is it?
The Secure Flight Passenger Program was developed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to protect travelers by requiring them to provide specific information for travel.
What information is required?
The Secure Flight Passenger program requires airlines to collect:
- Full Name (first, middle (if existent) and last name) this must match your Attendee’s official state or federal issued identification.
- Birth Date
- Gender
- Redress number (where applicable for travelers whose name previously had appeared on the “do not fly” list)
What happens if an Attendee goes go to the airport and their ticket doesn’t match their ID?
- This information is cross-referenced with their identification at the airport. If it does not match, they may have to wait in long lines at the ticket counter to correct the information.
What this means for your Attendees:
- Starting Sept. 1, AFS will be unable to book reservations without the Secure Flight information required by TSA. Please be sure to collect this information prior to sending registrations to AFS.
