Brits looking to jet off in the coming weeks have faced long queues for passport appointments, with travellers concerned that they will miss out on their holidays. Many have travelled hours to passport offices - of which there are just seven in the UK - only to receive no update on their application.
There’s been a huge surge in applications as millions of people delayed applying for a new passport during the pandemic. This huge backlog means many people are struggling to get a new passport in time to go on holiday.
Holidaymakers have been forced to wait for hours at the passport office on Old Hall Street Liverpool. Many had travelled hours to be seen but hadn’t been given an update on their application, The Liverpool Echo reports.
