Beware of Passport Expirations!

Just learned they hard way that if your passport expires within 3 months of travel to Netherlands (6 months for most of continental europe), Delta will not let you travel!!!

Booked last week on a Sat night flight to Amsterdam from Atlanta, and since passport expired in January, the check in person said I could not travel! Thanks to the quick work of Delta Diamond line, they were able to rebook my wife and I on a flight to Boston, then to London the next day (UK does not have those passport restrictions), and then took the EuroStar train to Brussels, then the Thalys to Amsterdam...I never heard of that rule before last week, but lesson learned...always read the fine print!
