Hello all,
This is my first post - have been an avid reader but now I have a question of my own.
I'm set to fly Etihad next week on my honeymoon. I will be visiting Sri Lanka and the Seychelles. I have 2 full passport pages left, and the State Dept website says that each country needs 1 page. So in theory I am covered.
However, I do get a sense that:
a) I cannot rely on check-in staff to be up to date on these page requirements
b) Etihad has mixed customer service... not sure how open a gate agent or anyone else would be to a conversation on this point.
Do I need to be getting a new passport? It would have to be an in-person expedited agency situation. Which is fine. But to go through that I just want to get a sense of whether anyone has seen this issue before.
For context, I am flying both legs in Business, with the JFK-AUH legs on Etihad and the AUH-CMB legs on Sri Lankan.
To be clear, my concern is that Etihad staff will deny me boarding in New York. I am not so concerned about getting entry to Sri Lanka or the Seychelles (or maybe I should be?)
Thank you,
SC
