The TSA person said to me that it was ok to use up to a year after expiration. She wanted to let me know that my license expired in case I didn’t.
I have flown for years using my 4 plus years expired ID and my passports. I do however have a current one which I usually leave at home.
As long as you haven’t drastically changed in appearance or attempted to change your appearance ie… fake mustache, beard, hair pieces, fake nose, altered chin structure, fake eye inserts, and anything else… then you should be fine.
- What happens when you book a flight to a country you don't have a visa for?
- Why is there a weight limit for carry-on luggage on some airlines that is enforced even when the plane is almost empty?
That would be at the discretion of the security screeners. They have methods of verifying your identity even if you have no ID at all (some people forget their wallet). If you have a passport, bring that. Otherwise I would expect an expired license will not prevent you from being boarded. As a matter of law, an expired license only affects your right to drive. Your identity does not “expire”.
