Passport rules extend to layovers

A traveler attempting to fly from Boston to Glasgow via Reykjavik faced being denied boarding due to a passport validity rule requiring passports to be valid for three months beyond travel dates. Despite assurances from airline staff that transit in Reykjavik was permissible without full entry clearance, a gate agent barred boarding because of the passport's expiration date. This incident highlights how changes and ambiguities in travel document requirements, especially for airside transiting, can lead to unexpected travel disruptions, with official guidelines often unclear or difficult to interpret for travelers.
