I recently told you about Chicago's O'Hare airport coming in dead last among 20 mega-airports for customer satisfaction, according to a survey done by JD Power and Associates.
I'm guessing that like most people, you haven't had much use for your passport over the last year and a half or so because of the pandemic and its restrictions.
It's perfectly understandable that you may have forgotten about Illinois' REAL ID while dealing with a more than a year of pandemic-related issues. I'm just here to remind you that Federal enforcement of REAL ID begins for commercial domestic air travel in just six months.
