A best man who was denied boarding for a flight to Poland for his best friend's stag do because his passport was three days out of date managed to renew it in less than 12 hours and make it to the party
James Crane, 35, had meticulously planned his best mate's stag do in Krakow, which included a "fancy" steak dinner, bar crawl, shooting range, vodka tasting, VIP night club, and boat party. However, he was informed at Stansted Airport on June 1 that he couldn't board the plane due to his expired ID.
Unaware of the changes in passport rules since Brexit, James, also known as Crano, decided not to give up and miss his best friend's bachelor party. The next morning, he showed up at the passport office in Peterborough without an appointment, determined to argue his case.
