Casey bought the tickets to PR?

Ditto with my granddaughter, we were taking her home on our flight and had to have her birth certificate and notorized letter from my daughter allowing us to board with her.
Gosh, I have never had to show ID for any of my kids as long as they were under 18. Oh do you mean she had to have a BC to prove she was under 2?

They said every passenger had to have ID and we had to show we had permission to board with her...not sure if it was to prove who she was or that she had permission to be with us or both.

That is interesting and makes sense to me.
I have never run into that. I almost always fly American and they require ID for everyone 18 and over. I only have one left under that age so he never needs it. back in the day if you had a lapchild, we used to have to bring a BC to prove they were under 2 so they could fly for free..but that was a long time ago so I do not know how it is handled now.

This was 2 years ago and they checked to make sure we did have the paperwork. Other airlines may not be as strict but they sure were.

That was why we chose PR for vacation, we were planning on short notice and had not renewed our passports so that ruled out the other places we were considering, but Puerto Rico was fine because no passport is required or anything since it's a U.S. territory. So we got tickets for PR, had a great time, beautiful place. Of course as adults we had to show our IDs like normal when boarding, no ID has ever been required of our child, no birth certificate or anything, I've never heard of one being required before (unless maybe when you're going overseas? someplace that requires passports etc?).

My husband is retired air force now working for the navy. We were in the air force at the time of travel. He was just back from Balad, Iraq and we were celebrating :)

I haven't been in years! I was a little put off by how all the guys kiss each other--They would greet both my husband and I with kisses!! Normal for them but hubby was weirded out!

We toured Harrison AFB when we were there and OMG it was beautiful!! I told hubby he should have followed in his dads footsteps instead of going Army!!

I'm glad he's home now you must be tired ;) So a whole new set of bases to call home now! Hey at least you're getting some variety! Where do they have you now?

That's odd, I was never asked to show any BC for my son any of the times. And we flew Delta, Alaska, and Northwest at different times.

I have said many times that I think Caylee is in Puerto Rico with "relatives". If LE hasn't checked a certain location in PR, shame on them. The man who Caylee strongly resembles has family in P.R., and they appear to be very well off.

I thought this also, but I'm not sure she knew him that long ago.
She only knew amy about 6 months and I thought morales just over a year and they all hung together.

If she did not have her own ticket and was considered a lap child you still need to put that in the reservation with the child's name.

Do we know if there where any kids on that flight?

No passport or anything needed to take child to Puerto Rico since it's a U.S. territory. Just went there last year with my small child, no paperwork involved.
Your child's name would have to be on the reservation. This would have been easy enough to check out by LE. The person who had the child would have to have put his/her last name on Caylee's reservation.

Usually when you're booking plane tickets it asks how many children and what age and you automatically put in one child, under 2, or whatever, and you don't have to buy a ticket for the child. But do you have to enter the child really? I wonder if it's possible not to. I think you do have to have a separate ticket and boarding slip for the baby at the gate in the baby's name, but I'm not sure, maybe it sometimes is just on the parent's ticket without the baby's name stated? I can't remember. Or does it vary by airline.
Baby's name has to be stated as "infant child".

this summer i was flying alot with my daughter not everytime did they ask me for her name. i guess if the ticket desk was not doing there job it could slip thru the cracks

We can't be privy to that information...but LE could if they thought it to be a viable lead. There are many families on flights to San Juan. Just traveled through there in August.

Was your daughter's name on the reservation?

That's funny, we're military too, our son doesn't have an ID yet, but I never heard of children's IDs being required for commercial plane travel since non-military families don't have IDs for kids anyway. Do you mean on regular commercial, domestic flights you have to show military IDs or birth certificates for your children to fly? I've never heard of that before. Very interesting.
Technically, it's 16 and older on domestic. Doesn't stop them from asking. I once told my daughter to show her student ID. Any child needs to be on the plane's manifesto...infant or not. If LE wanted to check out the PR angle, it wouldn't be difficult. As we haven't heard one word about it, I would say at this point in time they're not considering it. I thought very early on that it was a possibility. Now, it looks like the defense is more apt to pursue this as the "spanish" connection. Perhaps, Texas because it's a border crossing. I think this is horrible (JMO). But, the truth is that the forensics lead to Caylee no longer being with us. Maybe Casey should tell us where her daughter is?

Airlines and airports. What happens in one, doesn't always happen in the others. Also, what works one day, doesn't 'fly' the next. Ah, no pun intended. Hubby flys alot. So hearing the different out comes on the same stories, doesn't surprise me.

What we need to know, is that sometimes young folks do fly without tickets, without them being documented. Hence, might take a flight, and not have a paper trail

From the reports folks are listing here, that sounds like a possiblity.

Hey RR0004, have you ever seen a case where so many things have been leaked to point in one direction?

That is also the way it was done back when my kids were little ones.
