Travel warning to check passports at least 3 weeks before flights to avoid £222 fee

People planning overseas trips are being urged to check their passports meticulously at least three weeks before travelling. Missing certain critical issues could lead to a £222 charge.

UK travellers must ensure their passports remain valid and undamaged before taking flight. Either of these problems could see you refused boarding.

To fix this, your passport will require immediate replacement and delaying this could prove expensive. This is due to the fact that standard passport renewals take three weeks.

For this, you can anticipate paying £94.50. Nevertheless, if you have failed to notice a passport problem until just days before your trip, you will need to pay £222 for the one-day express service.
