If you're talking about flying domestically within the U.S.A., then no -- you won't need your passport. (This includes, obviously, flights to Hawaii and Alaska, and also flights to U.S. territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.)

What you WILL need, however, is some form of valid picture I.D. -- if you're a U.S. citizen, you'll likely have either a driver's license or a government-issued identity card, and either of these would be perfect. If you do happen to have a passport, that would work fine too, but you don't NEED it -- it would just be another acceptable form of picture I.D.

Presumably, though, you'll be coming from somewhere else and entering the U.S., and will obviously have your passport on you. In which case, just use it as your picture ID, and present it with your boarding pass when checking in and clearning security.

The person above who works for travelocity is the reason I book directly. I doubt she's been to the virgin islands, puerto rico or guam because it takes at least a birth certificate to get to these locations as a U.S. citizen- and if it is old and wrinkly better get a passport.

Now Mr. or Ms. Castillo of the PI - assuming that you will use your passport upon entry into the continental U.S., the answer to your question is you will need your Philippines passport when travelling beyond the continental U.S. once you get here, i.e. Alaska, Hawaii and the territories we spoke of earlier. But, don't forget your work or vacation visa when doing this.

While in the U.S., you don't need a passport to travel within the U.S., but depending on where you are from, you will need a passport to get into the country. For non-citizens, it is often used as formal identification if wanting to do things like cash a check or sometimes even to use a credit card for a purchase of merchandise, depending on the merchant.
Enjoy your trip...........there are a lot of things to see and do!!!

No. If you are a U.S Citizen you can go anywhere you want in the U.S without a passport.

Not if you live here and are a U.S. citizen.
If you leave the country, you will need a passport to return.

If you are a citizen, technically, no.

However, if you are planning on getting a flight, a passport will speed things up at the airport.

If you're a US citizen then no, but it is good to carry some form of ID.
