you might be let off, depends on who you get at the desk. I got through once with an expired provisional license. It was out of date by a year!

TBH, I wouldn't chance it! You may get through from here but you could well be stopped on the return journey, causing you alot of serious grief and extra cost if they delay you and you then need to book another flight. I've heard of this happening to a few close friends. One guy had to get the train and then a ferry as they outright refused to let him fly!! Your call but I'd be saying no... Sorry!:(

p.s.
Student cards aren't worth sh1t in this case as they could be fake..
