Today, I was going on a plane to Chicago. My passport picture is 6 years old, and back then I was a beautiful model. Now, I gave birth to a child and gained 50 lbs. When I showed my passport to the airport atendents, I got arrested for stealing someones passport. FML

okay, i couldnt put to much info in my thread because the 300 word limit kept me from writing too much information. As a mom, i can't really go around wearing all this fancy makeup or whatever, it would be unreasonable. Also, i cut my hair to about chin length, and dyed it brown (i used to be blonde) because since im a mom, i wanted to look the part. when i was a model, I was 20-30 lbs underweight, so when I gained 50 lbs, it made a difference to my face. Also, i was NOT travelling from somewhere in the US to Chicago, i was travelling from my vacation in Korea to Chicago. I have a Dutch passport, so its different there. but anyways, im loosing weight and i acually got a new passport picture today so i wont be having this problem again

Why didn't you get a new one when you changed so much? Don't be too hard on those guys, they're just doing their jobs.

They didn't see any sort of facial resemblance?

Don't you have to renew your passport every five years?

Yeah 6 years is a long time, but any other valid ID would probably work, although I dunno how airport security is there, though I imagine it would be pretty damn tight...

At least you're not Iranian. When I go to airports, I always seem to be 'randomly' searched. Multiple times. By the same people. Within five minutes of each other.

#4 no if you're over 18 it's every 10 years. and man that sucks... but yea i would've gotten it renwed if i had changed that much..

I call shenanigans. I got my passport picture taken six years ago, back then I was chronically overweight. I've lost a lot since then, my facial structure has changed significantly, and my hair is completely different. I flew across the country only two days ago, using that as my identification, and there were no problems whatsoever.
