Finance expert Martin Lewis has reissued an urgent warning to anyone with a passport who is due to go abroad this year. The MoneySavingExpert is continuing to emphasise the importance of checking your passport in his money-saving newsletter, and has said holidaymakers must check these two crucial things before they set foot on that plane.
Millions have already booked a summer holiday this year and more than 60,000 others are planning to leave UK shores this year, according to Martin Lewis's Twitter poll. In order not to get caught out during your holiday he has advised to check your passport for these two things to avoid possible problems.
