Yeah, I'm kind of wondering why my nickname for my partner is "arse", too.

Oh I call him an arse all the time, but that's neither here nor there.

To address the scenario though, I'd likely say tschüß and go on the holiday by myself.

You have planned and paid for a lovely two week holiday with your partner, you run through the checklist.. "hey booty", you say, "we need at least 6 months on our passports in order to gain entry, you good?", "Sure", is the reply.

However on arrival at the airport you discover that not only do they not have 6 months, their passport expired some months ago.

"WTF?", you exclaim, "I'm sorry but I didn't know you have to renew passports.."

What do you do, and why?

Wouldn't have happened, as I would have checked my wife's passport too.

Plus I don't think I'm keen on travelling to another country for a holiday, meaning the carbon dioxide emissions from the flight and stuff. I would rather go on a holiday within my country. I don't care that much about losing $6,000.

No matter whoz responsibility, I would get blamed for it.
So I would be checking her passport as well.

Assuming i didnt, .... depends on how bad i want to go, and how much i would mind the subsequent divorce.

Well you probably wouldn't have arranged the holiday in the first place?

Anyway, would you take a domestic holiday with the partner who had just screwed up and cost you $6,000 ..?
I think maybe I would too, if we could afford it. They probably feel pretty bad about what they did.

Yeah I would go for a domestic holiday with my partner even after she has screwed up and cost me $6,000. To me, it's the feeling of being less lonely with my partner and the comfort it gives me that is more important than the money :)

Shit happens. I'd forgive and get over it.

The idea that I'd waste 6k on a holiday is hilarious, by the way. Not something I would ever do. No way I'm paying 6k to go to some foreign city because I absolutely loathe cities. No way I'd spend 6k on a wilderness vacation because I can do that domestic for less than a tenth of the cost.
I'm finished with this forum and the constant goddamn groupthink, virtue signalling, and woke scolding. I thank Max for the good times I've spent here but I just don't fit anymore. Peace.

Yes, I do... ow, it's something else.

I'd just buy the emergeny passport at the airport for 50 euro and make fun of her for the rest of the vacation.

Depends on how long I've known the partner for. If it's been a serious thing for years, then I'd definitely stay behind. But otherwise? Fuck it, I'm jetting off.

I'd take the holiday solo, though this would never happen because we have to keep our documents current since we're immigrants.

What country only charges 50 euros for an emergency passport? What country issues emergency passports at airports?
