As the base learned, Marina from Krasnoyarsk, after her 45th birthday, was going to fly with her colleagues to Yerevan for a social trip. At the airport, the woman checked in calmly and took her first flight to Novosibirsk, but after a customs inspection, the airline representative refused to allow her to board the next flight. The worker said that Marina's passport was not valid and she might not be allowed to pass through Armenia. He believed that the document should be changed immediately after the 45th birthday, although according to the law the passport remains valid for another 90 days. At the same time, the customs officials did not see any obstacle to the flight. Marina had to return to Krasnoyarsk and urgently buy new tickets through Moscow for 123 thousand rubles.

The appeal upheld the decision. Base in Telegram Base at maximum.
