A family had to cancel a £3,000 dream trip to Disneyland Paris after they were caught up in passport delays. A series of problems affected the long-awaited trip, including their return flight being cancelled by easyJet.
Stuart McLean was due to head to France this month with his wife to celebrate one of his two young girls' fifth birthday for five days of fun in the theme park, just outside the French capital. They had applied for passports for their girls back in February and expected a wait of up to five to seven week, giving them in theory plenty of time, EdinburghLive reports.
But, delays in the passport office meant that while one of their daughter's passports did arrive after four weeks, the other didn't. The couple got nowhere when they chased for an update and then found out weeks before they were due to fly that easyJet had cancelled their return flight.
