Willingly and knowingly? Are you serious? I have heard OTT hyperbole here on FT before but this has to be one of the most ridiculous. You are saying the airline rep knew exactly what they were doing and that they made a conscious decision to “willingly and knowingly” hand your passport to another random pax rather than just making a mistake? You truly believe that?
There are costs to replace the passport, plus costs for new visas that I don't know if the airline will cover.
Why do you have to replace the visas? You still have the passport. Just carry both. No different than if your passport had expired and the visas were still valid.
Drama much?
