42 students from UK school stuck in US after hotel destroys their passport: Report

New York/IBNS: Forty-two students from a school in UK's Walsall were left stranded in the United States after a hotel was alleged to have accidentally destroyed their passports.


According to a BBC report, students from Barr Beacon School were on a ski trip to New Hampshire when they were informed their passports were destroyed by hotel management.

The students were scheduled to fly back home on Saturday. However, they had to stay for four more days to get their emergency documents.

A mother said she was shocked by the strange turn of events, but the school assured her that they will manage the crisis.

"It was a horrific shock really," the mother, who did not wish to be named, told BBC.

"It's the first time she has been away from family for this long. And what they were doing was really challenging - skiing black runs or blue runs, depending on their experience."

"Forty-one of the passports were destroyed whilst the group were staying at the hotel in New Hampshire," she told BBC.

The British Embassy had completed the applications and the students will return on Wednesday.
