Easyjet and passport validity

Polmop

Hi, I am travelling to Tenerife in August and have just realised my passport expires in Jan 2014, so when i travel i will have 5 months left on it.

Have just called the spanish embassy who has said it is valid until the last day, but i dont know about easyjet

I have called them and they said it should be ok but does anyone know for definate
Thanks

Your passport is valid for travel within the EU, and most of the world, until the day it expires.

I had something about 6 months in my head

You were probably told that by a travel agent at some point, they tend to band round this 6 month fallacy because they can't be @rsed to check individual destinations and some even go so far at to enforce it on their own charter flights.

Not sure how many countries do have the 6 month rule (or something similar), but it doesn't apply to most mainstream destinations.

Some airlines have 6 months in their T & Cs regardless of destination, I don't know what their reasoning is, as there is no such restriction for Europe.
