What do I need for a cross-country flight

What do I need for a cross-country flight?
Okay, so I booked my ticket for Minneapolis, MN, coming from San Antonio, TX. So, I need to know what to bring, and their regulations for carry on luggage. Will I need my passport since it's still within the country? What is my boarding pass? Is that my ticket to get in, or will I get it when I arrive, or what? Anything else I may need to bring? Plus it says they allow 22"x14"x9" for carry on, but next to it says 1/Passenger, so even if I have 2 objects that are within those limits, I can only take one on board with me? What if one's a backpack? Briefcase? What do I do when I transfer planes?

i'll answer the things i know.... -you dont necessarily need your passport just a government approved id which could be a passport or a driver's license -boarding pass is like your ticket like if you bought your tickets online you'll have what's called an iterinary and when you check in at the airport counter you show this and they give you your boarding pass or some airline now offer you to get boarding passes online before you leave your house so all you have to do at the airport is check your luggage in -from what i know for carry on luggages it's 1 bag and 1 personal item so i think backpack/briefcase is alright -there's a 3-1-1 rule for liquids which is all liquids must be in 3 ounce or smaller container, and all containers must be packed in a single 1 quart ziptop clear plastic bag and each passenger is allowed only one ziplock bag -no sharp/harmful objects in carry on if you want more info you can checkout the tsa website
