Travelling With An Expired Passport - 2Nd Update .......
18 Answers
Following on from my previous 2 threads, they returned home last week.
A quick reminder - his passport expired approx 8 months ago and after contacting Jet2, they were told that it would be okay to travel with an expired passport.
On the way to Spain, they got through immigration at both ends no problem .... it's as if no one notice ..... or mo one cared!!!!
On the way back, they got through immigration in Spain, but the passport was noticed in the UK. The immigration officer asked him if he knew that his passport was out of date and he told him that he already knew. The officer told him to wait whilst he had a word with his manager. He returned 5 minutes later and told him he was okay to continue, but he should renew his passport ASAP.
...... and there you have it ..... you can travel with an expired passport.
So what's the point in paying to renew it, if you can use an expired one?? I wonder at what point they'd refuse an expired passport .... a year out of date ..... five years out of date????
