Good news for Arizona’s frequent flyers; as of this morning, Arizona is the first state in the U.S. to allow its permanent residents to add their driver’s licenses or state IDs to Apple Wallet. These digital licenses and IDs can serve as a valid form of identification at certain TSA security checkpoints within the state.
This new technology is limited to select TSA checkpoints and airports. Currently, Sky Harbor International Airport is the only participating Arizona airport, but other airports (namely, Tucson International) are likely to participate in the near future as this technology becomes more common.
