REAL IDs Required For Air Travel

BBAHC wants to remind our patients that if you use your driver's license for air travel, a REAL ID will be required as of May 7, 2025.  This could impact your ability to fly for medical appointments, so it is important that you take action now if you do not yet have a REAL ID.  In addition to flying on a commercial flight, REAL IDs are required to visit or work on a military base and access certain federal facilities.  Visit this Alaska DMV webpage for more information:  https://dmv.alaska.gov/credential-services/realidupdate/ or scan the QR code below with your phone.
