Millions of people are expected to jet off this summer
People planning a trip abroad this summer need to be aware of new changes to some travel rules. Holidaymakers should ensure they have a check-list of key travel changes ticked off before heading to the airport, to avoid any unnecessary holiday stress.
A number of EU countries in the Schengen Area require your passport to be no more than 10 years old from the point of issue when you're travelling there. However, most countries also require your passport to be valid for at least three months after your dates of travel. However, it's worth noting that over the next two years, most major airports will introduce new systems into their security checkpoints that will stop passengers from having to spend time taking items out of their bags. London City Airport became the first in the UK to start using the scanners full-time last week, with travel hubs including Heathrow and Gatwick due to follow.
It's always worth checking what your airline's policy is and, if needs be, booking in advance rather than just before the flight takes off. When applying you should be aware of unofficial websites, as some try to charge you a fee to get a new card.
