bring a valid id
2 :
You'll need a boarding pass. I'd recommend bringing a book as well.
3 :
patience!!! no really i think you only need a liscense and the boarding pass right??
4 :
A driver's license or other state issued picture ID and your boarding pass. If you meant an international flight (traveling outside the U.S.) you will also need a passport. This is even true for Canada or Mexico whereas in the past you only needed a birth certificate. You no longer need your birth certificate. If you are under 18 it would still be good to have a driver's license or state ID you don't have to have one. If you don't have an ID I would contact the airline to verify.
5 :
for domestic travel, all you need is a valid ID, like a driver's license or an SSS card. If you have a passport, better. of course, i am assuming that you will have your tickets with you. once you have checked-in, they will issue you a boarding pass. if you are still a minor, a written consent from both your parents will be of great help. have a safe trip.
6 :
Here are the accepted forms of ID per the TSA. http://www.tsa.dhs.gov/travelers/airtravel/acceptable_documents.shtm If you are underage I don't believe you need to present ID, however, having some kind of ID is recommended. It is best to call your airline and inquire with them about what you should do. If you don't have a driver's license you may want to get a state ID card. This is issued by the dept of licensing (where you go to get your driver's license).

Day trip to Washington DC from NYC
Day trip to Washington DC from NYC?
Is it possible to make a day trip to washington DC form NYC? If I leave early from NYC by train? I am not talking about the commercial bus tours but doing it by ourselves. I wish to see White house, Capitol building and a couple of some major attractions, not much museums and stuff. I have an international flight ahead and I have 3 days in NYC. I want to squeeze in DC because I don't know if I get another chance to visit US. Thanks.

Yes you can make a day trip to DC from NYC. The trip from the Big Apple to the Nation's Capital take about 3.5 to 4 hours on Amtrak, depending on the train your taking. A one way ticket on the Northeast Regional will range between $72 and $103, while a one fare on the Acela Express, which is an high speed train, will range between $133 and $155. However, if you leave on an early train, you'll most likely take the Northeast Regional, which is cheaper. I hope this information is very helpful. Good luck Native New Yorker

Native gave you some good advice, which I'll add to-- If you take the 6:45 Amtrak Northeast Regional train from New York's Penn Station, you'll arrive at Washington Union Station at 10:10am--just a few minutes after most of the attractions open. Walk out the front entrance of Washington Union Station and you'll be facing the US Capitol. If you reserve a 10:45 tour via their website, you'll get an appreciation of the Capitol and the US Congress. From there you can walk down Capitol Hill towards the dozen-odd Smithsonian Museums, taking your pick. If the Smithsonian isn't your thing, visit the National Archives to see the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, or maybe stop in at the National Gallery of Art. When the museums close at 5:00, head back to Washington Union Station either by foot (if you still have the energy) or via the Metro subway, which has a station right underneath. Grab some dinner at one of the restaurants or eatery food stands, and get on Amtrak's 6:10 Northeast Regional train, which arrives back in New York at 9:25pm. A busy day, but it can easily be done.

A book, your ipod, IKD magazines!!!
2 :
iPod, bring a book, bring a puzzle magazine, drink some NyQuil when you take off, bring a video camera and film yourself, tell people "going to Bombay was the bomb!", tell the flight attendants you want a diet coke and a packet of sugar to make it taste right, tell the pilot the left side of the plane is going slower than the right, play "guess where my finger has been" with the person next to you, cry, pretend you are flying the plane, pretend you are afraid of clouds and scream every time you see one, make a paper airplane and throw it (repeat until you are hand cuffed), sip a cup of coffee and spit it out all over the seat in front of you while yelling "this isn't coffee! It's hot water with brown stuff in it!", giggle for no reason, stare at the person next to you, take off your pants and put them back on again, stand in the aisle and spin- then yell about how the plane is spinning out of control, try to hold hands with the person sitting next to you, pretend to talk to someone on your cell phone and tell them about being strip searched by the TSA- cry because they won that round of "where's the toothbrush", stand up and sing like Elf but sing "I'm on a plane and I'mm sinnnnginnnnggg!" and last but not least- go to the lavatory in the front, flush and run down the aisle to the back of the plane saying "I'm going to beat it this time!" That should keep you busy for a while.

I like to get movies on my iPod and watch them or bring a book. You could also bring a laptop or DVD player. One thing that really entertains me for some reason is just watching out the window. You could bring playing cards or something.

Unfortunately, there is no non stop flight between Washington, DC and Venice. I live not too far from Venice and have family in the northern Virginia area and fly this route fairly frequently. The fastest connection is on Lufthansa through Frankfurt which takes just under 10 hours. I did this a couple of weeks ago. You could also fly on Delta through Paris in about 10 hr 20 min total travel time. For several options the travel time is around 14 to 16 hours - this allows you not to be so rushed at your connection point here in Europe.
