All's well that ends well I suppose and it could have been far worse with later available flights.

Pity he didn't ask you about ESTAs earlier and you could have told him about the warning in the red banner on the ESTA web page.


Citizens of participating Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries traveling to the United States are strongly encouraged to apply for an ESTA at the time of booking their trip and no later than 72 hours prior to departure.

We've never used Tui except when they were Thomson back in 1990. They seem to get a bit of a bad press here on the DIBB but it's always good to see them helping their passengers out.
