Hi,

I overheard, a 'starred' airline flew in a passenger from USA all the way to India with expired passport validty ...

The airline was fined about 6900 QRs.

Passenger deported back !

Another 'professional degradation' example.

Bye.

MM.

Molten Metal, I want to share a first hand experience.

A few years back our family traveled Doha-Karachi and my hubby realized himself his expired passport only after crossing the last gate of Karachi airport building...

Another or same ;) 'starred' airline flew in a passenger from Qatar all the way to Pakistan with expired passport validity... but thank God that time no one was fined :)

Lol. The passenger was a moron for even buying a ticket without having a valid passport. How could anyone be that stupid?
