Luggage ‘safety’ trick passengers MUST avoid at airport – it’s a ‘waste’
A TRAVEL expert has revealed the number one TikTok trend travellers should avoid at the airport due to safety concerns.Airport officers are trained to compare your face to your passport photo and won't hesitate to question or even refuse you if it doesn’t match.Gavin Lapidus, travel consultant and founder of an online travel agent, said: "overly glamorous look could lead to delays if you're not recognizable.
He added: "Plus, passport photos with too much makeup might not be approved initially, causing delays in receiving your passport." To alleviate any stress, the travel expert recommends that travellers should try to look as natural as possible in their passport photo.The well-seasoned flyer explained why using popular vacuum-sealed bags could cause headaches for holiday goers.
Previous rules let you roll over up to nine months from your last passport if you renew it early - that means some can have 10 years and nine months on them. For example, if your passport start date is July 2012 but the expiry date says it was December 2022 that is wrong.The second thing to check after this is how long is left on your passport.So if your passport expires in September 2022, the last date you could have travelled to Europe would have been June 2022.
