trave u.s.a n mexico

hiya, i've got a question. I'm sending my visa application along with my passport, but i want to travel across the u.s.a n mexico in airplane, but since i wont have a passport would it be possible to travel? I've got my florida i.d tho...

If you are in the US, there are no requirements to have a passport for travel within the country.  However, if you cross the border, you will need a passport.

"A passport is needed to fly to Mexico, Canada, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Bermuda (as of Jan. 23, 2007).

Homeland Security issued a temporary ruling in June 2007 that allowed air travelers to fly as long as they carried proof that their passports were pending, but that allowance expired Sept. 30, 2007. "

I just went to Mexico walking across the border in November and I was asked for my passport.

You may also find that the British authorities will be unhappy if you leave the US while they are processing your application.
