The Bulgarian Immigration Control are very strict, even if you get through the UK end and it is regulation that all children now have their own passports - I wouldn't risk it - make an appointment and get them their own. £70 a pop mind you . Good Luck!

Dave we were also in your situation as we also fly next sat.We phoned passport advice line yesterday 4.15pm and booked appointment for today at Durham, were told min 7 days to get passports (250mile round trip) but when we got there ( cos kids already on our passport ) were advised that if we wanted to pay extra £83 total per child we could have passports in 4hours .
We have just arrived home with them thankfully Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

hi chris we have appointment tommorrow 400mile round trip to newport. will ask about £83. We spoke to the consulate today and they were adament that our children will be sent back if they don't have there own passports. People don't need this one week before there holiday. Inghams have gave us no notification of this what so ever.
