A boy was left in tears and apologising to his little brother after a row over his passport saw them barred from a Ryanair flight. Ryley McGuckin, 11, was told his passport was invalid - despite it not running out for another four months.
The holiday nightmare happened as the family prepared to jet off on their holiday to Tenerife from Prestwick Airport. It meant his whole family ended up walking away from the flight and heading home to Falkirk, reports the Daily Record.
However, knowing their documents were sound, the family then decided to try their luck at Edinburgh Airport. And after forking out £600 for new tickets they were allowed to travel with a different airline which confirmed there was nothing amiss with Riley's documents.
