Warning to travellers

Post by Northern Lass »

Can I just bring something to everyones attention

because this happened to an elderley person I know.....

to all of you looking at going on your jols in the future

Do take the time to check that your Passport is up to date!

How awful to check your passport the day before travelling and find that it has expired!

:shock: :o :shock:

remember the motto

Up-to-date with your Passport
or find yourself in the doghouse

:( :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Im not sure if its just as bad as that or worse, but my sister once knew she had 4 months to put her passport application through and she waited until 3 days before we were flying out before she finally did it. It arrived the morning of out trip! That was a lot of stress!! Dont do this to your family members! hehe
