Papers, Please! » Blog Archive » DHS proposes to require both ID papers and passes for all air travel Quote:
1. All would-be international travellers to or from the USA (even US citizens crossing the U.S.-Canada border on foot) would have to have government-issued ID credentials
2. All would-be passengers on international or domestic flights to, from, over, via, or within the U.S. would have to have both government-issued ID credentials and explicit case-by-case prior permission from the DHS to the airline to allow each passenger to board a plane.

So, basically, before getting on a plane, you'll need to apply for permission with the Department of Homeland Security.
The new program will also build a database with your lifetime travel.
