    Is a passport essential for flights between Belfast and Glasgow? The website seems a bit non committal on it.

    It seems clear enough to me, photographic ID is required.

    According to their site, your driving licence is fine as photo id.

    Personally, I'd take a passport. Last thing I'd want is a security or gate agent telling me they're not acepting an Irish licence (their site doesn't specify uk licence, and i know of people who flew in the past on an irish licence.)

    Also if anything happened and you were forced to fly home with another airline they might insist on a passport.

    from Glasgow to Belfast you can always take the bus and the ferry which takes less than 6 hours, which isnt that much slower than the plane when taking into account all the messing goes on with getting to airport/ checkin queues/ security/ collecting bags the other end and getting from airport into town on the other end.

    I wasn't asked for any ID either way.

    You can be asked for ID on the ferries, especially when returning and if by car.

    If travelling by air, photographic ID is required. But just remember that your Irish drivers licence states your place of birth (which could be outside of Ireland) so it's best to take your passport as well.
