Beginning January 23, 2007, ALL persons, including U.S. citizens, traveling by air between the United States and Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda will be required to present a valid passport, Air NEXUS card, or U.S. Coast Guard Merchant Mariner Document, or an Alien Registration Card, Form I-551, if applicable.
If you read Jaunted, you probably already have a passport. If you don't have one, however, or if your name has recently changed and you haven't bothered to update your passport, the list of places you can travel to by air without one is about to get shorter. A similar law for cruises, water transport and land transport is looming, but has not actually been implemented yet.

After the jump, we provide you with the rundown on what you need to do to get that passport you previously didn't need for jetting off to the Cayman Islands and tending to your offshore bank accounts. This includes how to get expedited service. Act now if a trip is coming up, and you won't have to fly to one of 14 government passport agencies around the country for 24-hour emergency turnaround (which is only honored for actual emergencies).

Good luck, and for chrissake, put that baby to use if you haven't already. Alternatively, you could go Florida or Guam. Or to Burkina Faso with a World Passport printed in Esperanto!
