A Muscovite was banned from a flight to Turkey - there was not one completely blank page in her passport. The Muscovite was unable to fly to Antalya for vacation, even though her passport was valid and there was plenty of space left for the border stamps. The reason for the refusal was an unexpected formality: there was not one completely blank page in the document, although there were many blanks, so to speak, halves and quarters. On October 23, the girl was about to fly from Vonokubo on a Turkish Airlines flight. However, even before the check-in desk, the airport staff checked her passport and refused to let her go through. Persuasion did not help. Later the traveler discovered that, contrary to popular belief, the requirement for one completely blank page actually exists not only for affixing "full" visas such as Schengen-British-American, but also for stamping passports in visa-free countries.
