A Nottinghamshire family who almost missed their flight home from Tenerife have praised an airline for turning a plane back to the gate just before it took off. Adrian Insley, an account manager from Ilkeston, said his perfect holiday in Tenerife almost ended badly after losing his daughter's passport at the airport.
After an exotic getaway in Spain, the 38 year old, his partner, their four children and Adrian's parents were due to get a TUI plane to East Midlands Airport at around 10pm on Friday, August 26. The family made a stop at the airport's Duty Free shop and then proceeded to the security check.
"I am very organised with my passport, I even have a bag for them", Mr Insley said. "But this time my partner said she needs a passport to get something from Duty Free, and then she put the passport in the bag.
