Teen sent 350 miles to Glasgow for new passport after falling foul of three-month rule

A young mum had to make a 650-mile-round trip just to have her passport renewed after not being aware she needed to check if her passport would be accepted by the country she was going to.

Teenager Monique Shaw had to make the journey from her home in Pwllheli, Wales to Glasgow, Scotland to ensure that she was able to travel from Manchester to Portugal on April 30.

Miss Shaw blamed the travel company she booked her break with for not telling her her passport was not valid - but Jet2 insist it is up to individuals to check their own travel documents.
