Valid passport

[cassa333]

How long does a childs passport have to have on it in order to go to Tenerife?

[boxtops]

I thought all passparts had to have six months validity, to go anywhere, but I could be wrong.

boxtops is incorrect, there are very few countries that require 6 months validity - it is a myth that ALL countries require it - just search AB

Thank you

As long as it is valid for the dates of travel it is ok.

However, your carrier is entitled to make something like "valid for 6 months after intended return" a condition of travel.

Just look in the small print of the booking form.

but what carrier? there are 100's - it's not true

I don't know of any 'carriers' that have a 6 month rule.

Some package holiday companies put one in their T&C - but you don't check in with a holiday company, just with the carrier. So the holiday company are never going to know anyway.
