  • Why do you say "can" when the your answer says "An air carrier must accept only the following..."? Commented Oct 23, 2015 at 17:22
  • I read that as "air carriers are only allowed to accept the following types of ID" rather than they "air carriers are required to accept the following types of ID". In other words, it seems to me that the important word is "only" rather than "must". I agree that the wording is a little hard to parse, though. Commented Oct 23, 2015 at 17:43
  • In Canada, is the air carrier the only one who needs to check the ID? In the US, IDs are also checked by the TSA agents, who could have their own set of rules. Commented Oct 23, 2015 at 18:46
  • @Nate I flew between Vancouver and Ottawa last month and on both flights everyone had their passport out, even the Canadians. There was also security, which I suppose is another consideration. Commented Oct 23, 2015 at 19:57
