Do I need an ID card to book a plane ticket abroad?

By purchasing air tickets online, you will get an international e-ticket number. Just bring the original valid ID card used when purchasing an international electronic ticket to the international electronic ticket counter designated by the airport for check-in, and then go through the security check-in formalities with the international electronic ticket voucher, boarding pass and valid ID card.

You must provide the name of the boarding person (consistent with the name on the certificate), the type of boarding certificate, the nationality of the passenger, the number of boarding certificate, the date of birth and the gender of the passenger. Special categories of passengers (international students, immigrants, laborers, seafarers, etc.). ) explain in advance when booking a plane ticket. It is possible that some airlines will have corresponding discounts on prices, taxes and luggage, but they need to provide corresponding valid certificates.

Extended data:

The Notice of the Public Security Bureau of the Civil Aviation Administration of China on Issues Related to the Use of Passports on Domestic Flights states that the passport of the People's Republic of China can be used as a valid flight identity document to handle procedures such as ticket purchase, check-in and security inspection on domestic flights; Passengers on domestic flights should use the same valid flight identification when going through the procedures of ticket purchase, check-in and security inspection.

The resident ID card cannot be used after it expires. If the validity period expires, you can use a temporary resident ID card or a recent bareheaded photo of yourself issued by the public security organ, stamped with a special seal for household registration and marked with the validity period as a valid flight ID card instead.

The notice requires that the public security organs of civil airports should issue temporary identification certificates for passengers in need on the principle of "convenience and service" to ensure passengers' smooth travel.
