I know this is silly question but Scotland to London by plane does DS need passport or will learner DL be enough?

[RTKangaMummy]

His passport has expired and we are wanting to send it off to get it renewed this week but might not be back in time for his possible flight (other option is train)

But totally confused if he needs one to fly

I think he doesn't cos within UK but also think he might do to go through security on domestic flight

The only info I can find is old so didn't know what rules are in place now

EDI to LCY or LHR are the options we are looking at - just in case it makes any difference

Thank you

Provisional license is fine for internal flights.

Provisional licence should be fine, but probably worth checking with the carrier.

I got my renewed passport back 2 weeks ago - took about 10 days in total, for a straightforward adult renewal. If your DS is changing from a child to adult passport, that could take a bit longer, I guess (no idea of his age.)
