After conversations with several airline reps, it became apparent that lost IDs are handled on a case-by-case basis and that several combinations of conditions can get you on board your flight without proper identification. There are no hard and fast rules, although all the reps agreed on one point: you'll need to show up at the airport extra early to allow enough time for a security interview. (Moreover, since this is your error and not theirs, if you miss your flight you'll have to pay the change fee and the difference in airfare for a later flight.)
Though no single issue is likely to make or break your case, here are some of the considerations that airline personnel will use to determine whether to let you fly.

Originally posted by 2011GT View PostTSA doesn't address the issue of lost IDs on its Web site, and agency officials that I spoke with claimed it was up to the airlines whether to let passengers without IDs fly -- since the airlines are the ones who issue boarding passes. Airline representatives, meanwhile, wouldn't confirm that it is, in fact, their decision, and although they did acknowledge that they have "security measures in place to deal with such an eventuality," they wouldn't elaborate further.

Adult passengers (18 and over) are required to show a U.S. federal or state-issued photo ID in order to be allowed to go through the checkpoint and onto their flight.
We understand passengers occasionally arrive at the airport without an ID, due to lost items or inadvertently leaving them at home. Not having an ID, does not necessarily mean a passenger won’t be allowed to fly. If passengers are willing to provide additional information, we have other means of substantiating someone’s identity, like using publicly available databases.
Passengers who are cleared through this process may be subject to additional screening. Passengers whose identity cannot be verified by TSA may not be allowed to enter the screening checkpoint or onto an airplane.
Acceptable IDs include:
U.S. passport
U.S. passport card
DHS "Trusted Traveler" cards (NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST)
U.S. Military ID (active duty or retired military and their dependents, and DOD civilians)
Permanent Resident Card
Border Crossing Card
DHS-designated enhanced driver's license
Drivers Licenses or other state photo identity cards issued by Department of Motor Vehicles (or equivalent)
A Native American Tribal Photo ID
An airline or airport-issued ID (if issued under a TSA-approved security plan)
A foreign government-issued passport
Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) card
Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC)

I will give you first hand info. I lost my license 2 months ago. When you get a temporary ID it does have your picture on it.
When I went through security at Love Field they didn't even questions me...they just looked at my temp ID, boarding pass, and said have a nice flight.
I was shocked at how easy it was.

I've gotten on a plane with no government ID what so ever. It just takes an extensive search and pat down. But temps have pictures now for sure.
I lost my license running on Huntington beach and though I wasn't going to get to fly home last summer so it's recent first hand experience.

This just happened to me when I was in NYC, I lost my wallet but found it. I had no other photo ID whatsoever. One of my friends is a TSA agent, said it happens all the time. A supervisor at the checkpoint can ask a series of challenge questions to verify your identify, and that if you have alternate things in your luggage, i.e. other photo ID, prescriptions, etc, you can get by.

99.9% of TSA agents are slack jawed faggots.
