Question: Today my spouse took a trip out of the US to visit his dad who has cancer-probably will be gone +/- one week. Anyway, I was the one who booked the ticket and booked a one way ticket as we needed to wait and see how the father procedure went before booking the return (otherwise you face the change penalty and change fee). Also, I did not like the prices on the Return leg on the outbound airline..so I am hoping a cheaper fare comes up in the next day or 2..on an alternate airline.
Anyway, my husband has his GC from his Canadian citizenship, but he was travelling to his country of birth(also a citizen there). Because it was a one way, the person at the counter/airline rep used his Jamaican passport instead of the Canadian, because he had a one way ticket. I should add that she said he cannot travel as a PR on a one way ticket-that was the issue and therefore had to prove why he can travel one way.
I think this is a mistake b/c to me she still should have registered his trip via CDN passport while he showed the Jcan proof as having an ability/validity for a one way ticket.
I don't know if the person did not know what to do or what...but now I am wondering how that will affect him on return next week b/c of how this woman put this on the system. (BTW..we have never had it done this way before..PRIOR to GC , any trip we made to the US he would travel on his CDN passport and even when leaving when they would ask about the one way he would just show (not for regsitering ) that he also held JA citizenship, but they put his CDN passport on record. The Jcan passport has no visa, etc so I am annoyed this happened.
Again, should I not even analyze this??? I just don't need an airline agent making problems for us for no reason.
