A Scottish mother says her family’s £6,500 two-week holiday to Hurghada, Egypt, is ruined after a passport validity problem prevents them from boarding at Gatwick. Victoria Vigors, 41, had spent about two years saving for the trip with her children, Riley, 15, and Roxie, nine. According to reports, airport staff identify an issue related to the passports, and the family is unable to proceed to the flight. The accounts describe Vigors becoming emotional after the discovery at the airport, with the travel plans abruptly ended despite the time and money invested in the holiday. Both outlets present the same core sequence: the family has a dream trip booked, arrives at Gatwick, and then learns that a passport validity issue stops them from traveling. The reports focus on the impact on the family and the sudden cancellation at the airport, rather than on any wider investigation or official response details.
