          I think the implication is you need one to get in. If already in flight, just do what that Naomi Campbell does. Problem solved.

            has this happened to anyone here ?
            Weird, I find Trailfinders to be very helpful, infact if i have to use a travel agent then they're the only ones i bother going to.

              No you are supposed to say "does he need one?"

              to which I answer "yes"

                I thought a criminal record was a prerequisite for getting in to Australia.

                  Just heard from trailfinders, I was selected for checking because someone with a similar name was on the watch list. But they have granted the visa so I'm off on my adventures for 4 weeks this autumn
