Qantas Aids Aussies Amid UK Passport Chaos
February 24, 2026·9 days ago·via NT News
Qantas steps in to help Australian dual citizens scrambling to meet new UK passport rules that kick in on February 25. Dual British or Irish nationals can no longer board UK-bound flights using just their Australian passport; they must present a valid British or Irish passport or a Certificate of Entitlement (CofE) attached to their Aussie one. The UK Home Office announced the changes last year for security reasons, but many Aussies only learn of it now through news alerts, risking missed trips.
