ONE traveller has revealed a code on boarding passes that you will want to avoid at all costs.

Chloe Jade Meltzer, 30, has shared that some boarding passes have an ‘SSSS’ code on that actually mean you have been selected for additional security checks.

Travel blogger Chloe shared how the ‘SSSS’ stamp on a boarding pass means you will get extra checks[/caption]

Chloe has been travelling the world since 2015, racking up a total of 162 countries visited.

Out of the hundreds of times she has travelled, she is lucky enough to only have had ‘SSSS’ on her boarding pass six times.

The four letters stand for ‘secondary security screening selection’ and mean that a passenger has been flagged for an additional security check by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) before boarding their flight.

In practice, this means that the selected passenger will have to have more pat-downs, hand swabs and thorough luggage checks before boarding their flight.

Chloe said one of the most common signs a traveller will have ‘SSSS’ appear on their boarding pass, is if they don’t get it handed to them immediately.

The New York-based travel blogger said: “I have gotten ‘SSSS’ on my boarding pass periodically over the years.

“When I get one, I will just try get the checks out of the way and head straight to the boarding gate to be screened again by airline staff.

“Usually, how long it takes depends on how fast you get to the boarding gate, how your bags are packed and how fast they are at searching.”

She added that if you are one of the unfortunate ones who gets flagged, then you will be pulled aside at the gate before you board your flight.

You will then most likely be given a pat down or a detailed search of your luggage.

Some passengers might even be tested for explosives.

Chloe added: “You also might be asked a few extra question like where you’re going and how long you’re staying there.

“It can feel very targeted but usually this will be going on for a few other people as well or sometimes half the plane.

“I personally don’t like this because it takes longer, you can’t do this before boarding, they do it exactly at boarding.”

There are many reasons why a traveller may get the code on their boarding pass, but Chloe shared that one reason is because of the countries you may have travelled to.

Some countries are flagged and indicate potential issues or alerts, for example, if you only purchased a one-way ticket.

The blogger added that it is important to not panic when you get the code on your boarding pass though, as it is issued randomly.

Some countries you many have travelled to, get flagged and indicate potential issues or alerts[/caption]

“They say it is randomly selected, sometimes it’s because you have travelled to certain countries that are flagged, or because you bought a one-way ticket,” she shared.

“Sometimes you might be on a watch list because you name is similar to one that they have flagged, or you have two different passports, you have passport irregularities.

“If you get the dreaded ‘SSSS’ don’t worry, it doesn’t mean you’re in trouble because it is random.

“Just deal with it, be ready to board early and get it done.”

There is also a major change for travellers as boarding passes and check-in to be scrapped in new airport rules.

Plus, the little-known discounts your boarding pass can get you on holiday which save you hundreds of pounds.

WHEN it comes to getting an extra glow, millions of women worldwide rely on instant tans.

But having pale skin means it’s always been difficult for me to find a product that works without making me look orange, or comically tanned, à la David Dickinson.

I’ve got very pale skin, and most instant tans I’ve tried in the past are way too orange to even look a little bit natural[/caption]

So I was keen to try out utan’s new viral instant tan sprays – the first designed to complement your skintone[/caption]

They come in either a cool or warm option, depending on your undertone – which you can check in the box below[/caption]

The cool spray was the first I tried, but was too orange for my liking – and I felt it was obviously fake[/caption]

So I was keen to try a new Instant Tan, after it went viral on social media.

The product comes from utan, who count Sienna Miller and Hailey Bieber among their celeb fans, and is the first-ever instant tan designed to “perfectly complement your skin’s undertone”.

“Blending easily and offering sheer coverage like body make-up, the airbrushing sprays dry in 60 seconds, staying resistant to sweat and water for long-lasting wear,” utan say of the sprays.

“Plus, it washes off with soap, when you’re ready.”

I couldn’t decide whether my undertone was cool or warm, so opted to get both of the sprays, as you can mix them together if you need to.

And you don’t need to worry about the instant tan having that horrible biscuit-y smell associated with so many tanning products.

The utan sprays – which you can get for £17.99 in Superdrug – have a base scent of organic vanilla and tonka, perfect for fragrance layering as it helps perfume to make your scent really stand out.

So if you’re a vanilla girly, it’s the perfect product to enhance your sweet smell.

In fact, women online have called the smell of the Instant Tan “insane” – and I tend to agree.

They advise you to spray the product, from a distance of approximately 15cm, onto a brush or mitt, before buffing into the skin.

I didn’t have a mitt to hand, so went with a fluffy blusher brush, and sprayed it on there before applying to my skin.

Applying the tan to my face led to a moment of panic, as it looked VERY dark compared to my ghost-like complexion.

So I definitely wouldn’t advise spraying the product directly onto the skin!

But after blending it in with my brush, it started to spread more and give me the glow I was looking for.

While I had initially thought I’d have to mix the two colours together, it was actually the warm that worked best for me.

The finish of the cool ended up being too orange, and seemed to draw more attention to the fact that my bronze was fake.

Whereas the warm spray worked perfectly – giving me a natural glow without too much of an orange base.

You have to work quickly with the sprays, as they do dry quickly, but I did manage to blend it out for even coverage.

Once I was happy with the finish, I used Avon’s Prep & Set setting spray for some extra transfer protection.

Having a tan – especially on my face – is a novelty for me, and made me feel instantly more confident.

So much so that I’d even consider going out without any more make-up on.

However, you can use the instant tan as a base if you’d prefer – just remember that your usual foundation may end up looking too light.

Another thing I hate about instant tans I’ve tried in the past is just how hard it can be to get them off.

But I didn’t need to worry about that with the utan sprays.

You can apparently remove easily with just soap and water, but I grabbed a face wipe and they worked a treat.

All in all, I’d give these sprays a four out of five – they’re perfect for a quick tan if you haven’t got time to let one develop, and smell absolutely divine.

But due to how easily I got the tan off, I’m not sure how well it would hold up in the rain – and that’s a necessity for heading out in British weather!

I’d definitely recommend though – even for the pale queens out there – and I’ll 100% be using it again.

I tried the warm spray next, and it was a much better option for my skintone – giving me an instant confidence boost too[/caption]

CORONATION Street star Georgia May Foote has issues a “tough” update on her “hard to deal with” ongoing health condition.

Actress Georgia, 34, who is best-known for playing the role as Katy Armstrong in the hit ITV soap, revealed two years ago that she had been diagnosed with vitiligo.

The soap star has actually had the skin condition – where white spots or patches can be seen in different areas of her body – since 2020.

Today the Coronation Street legend gave fans an update on her “tough” journey.

The actress took to social media as she opened up on the effects of vitiligo, which is a chronic autoimmune disorder.

Sharing a slew of pics which showed how the condition had affected her hands and arms, she wrote a lengthy post which read: ” Happy World Vitiligo Day.

“If you are new to my page or don’t already know, I developed vitiligo in 2020.

“This has been one of the craziest journeys I have ever had. I was misdiagnosed for a while before I begged to be seen by a dermatologist, which then took another year. I was then diagnosed with vitiligo.

“Vitiligo is a skin condition where my immune systems attacks the melanocytes which produce the melanin in my skin.

“This causes white patches all over my body, which continue to spread daily.

“They become bigger and show up new places all the time!.”

Giving fans an update on how she has been doing, Georgia said: “This year has been particularly tough as it has spread onto my face now. I have good days and bad days with the condition!

“Sometimes I’m really down about it and other days I feel very special.

“Unfortunately there is no understanding why this happens. ( stress deffo doesn’t help in my case ) I have the very annoying side effect of itching!

“And until the uk pass the cream Opzelure there will be no way of bringing my pigment back!”

The soap star ended with the message with: “People who love me don’t give it a second glance.

“That’s all that matters it’s a hard thing to deal with, but I am a tough and I will not let it get to me.

“I have an amazing family and group of friends who mean the world to me.

“Happy world vitiligo day to my gang.”

In March, Georgia revealed how she is advocating for the NHS to approve the prescription of medical cream, Ruxolitinib, which is reported to help those with the condition.

The actress shot to fame in Corrie in 2010, and was on the soap until 2015.

She’s also known for her appearances in the BBC school drama, Grange Hill, from 2005 for three years.

IRAN’S ruthless regime massacred defenceless inmates at a prison before blaming their deaths on shrapnel from airstrikes, insiders said.

It comes as sources warn the wounded regime is using the smokescreen of conflict to unleash a brutal crackdown and execution spree.

Cold-blooded regime dictators have also ordered the arrests of hundreds after allegedly some have links to arch-foe Israel.

Iran’s intelligence services detained at least 26 people accusing them of collaborating with the enemy – and three prisoners were hanged for allegedly spying for Israel.

Iranian insiders told The Sun how supreme leader Ali Khamenei is following a “disturbing pattern” of enforcing bloody clampdowns during periods of unrest.

It comes as the chorus of voices calling for the Ayatollah’s callous regime to be toppled grows louder following a monumental effort from Israel and the US to blitz critical nuclear sites.

An Iranian insider said: “The prison massacre now stands as another stain on Tehran’s human rights record – and a sobering reminder of what unchecked tyranny can unleash behind closed walls.”

Apparent exploitation of the focus on the conflict has seen an escalation in executions and political prisoners subject to horrendous conditions as the defeated regime exacts revenge on its own people.

As Israeli missiles rained down on a nearby military site on June 16, panicked inmates at Dizel-Abad Prison in Kermanshah begged to be moved to safety.

But they were instead met with a hail of bullets from the regime’s merciless enforcers in a “deliberate and cold-blooded act”, a witness said.

The source from within the prison said: “The prisoners insisted they be moved from areas where windows had shattered and where they feared further missile strikes.

“The regime’s answer was bullets.

“The special forces opened fire directly at unarmed, defenseless inmates who were merely trying to flee a danger zone.”

Insiders said the prisoners faced live ammunition after guards began beating inmates when they tried to breach internal doors in a bid to get to safety.

At least ten people were killed and a further 30 injured.

Regime authorities are now said to be attempting to cover-up their deaths.

One source said: “Officials are planning to falsely attribute the deaths to shrapnel from the airstrike, not their own gunfire.”

Well-placed sources inside Iran said at least 140 executions were recorded between May 22 and June 21 – making the harrowing toll of 398 for the three months since March 21.

Most capital punishments have been enforced at Qezelhessar, Adel Abad (Shiraz), Birjand, Qom Central, and Dastgerd (Isfahan) prisons.

Between June 16 and June 25, six people were executed after being accused of espionage, figures shared with The Sun from the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) show.

On Wednesday, Edris Ali, Azad Shojaei, and Rasoul Ahmad Mohammad were hanged in Urmia Prison on claims they were spying for Israel.

Earlier executions on similar charges include Mohammadamin Mahdavi Shayesteh in Qezelhessar on June 23, Majid Masibi in Dastgerd on June 22, and Esmail Fekri in Qezelhessar on June 16.

The people of Iran, in their century-long struggle, at tremendous and bloody cost, have repeatedly rejected the dictatorships of both Shah and Sheikh through successive uprisings.

Maryam Rajavi

Sweeping arrests are also plaguing Iran’s population – with around 700 people understood to have been detained with reported links to a “spy network”.

Meanwhile this week Khamenei’s cranks hastily transferred shackled and handcuffed inmates from three wards of the notorious Evin Prison using 20 buses.

Male prisoners were sent to Greater Tehran Penitentiary on Monday night, while female convicts were dispatched to Qarchak Prison.

Sources said during the rushed transfer, sickly inmates were deprived of the chance to collect important medications.

Prisoners sent to Hall 3, Section 2 of Greater Tehran Penitentiary have also been crammed 40 people a cell in rooms barely fit for half the amount, insiders said.

They added: “Sanitary conditions are extremely poor, with only one bathroom available for the entire hall.”

Female prisoners meanwhile have been denied any contact with their families – with their loved ones increasingly worried about their fate.

It has led to renewed calls from veteran campaigners for a global condemnation of Iran’s human rights violations.

Hossein Abedini, of resistance group NCRI, warned Iran’s regime accelerates its repression as an act of intimidation.

Abedini, the deputy director of the NCRI’s UK office, told The Sun: “It is crucial to remember that the ongoing struggle in Iran for the past four decades has been between the Iranian people and their resistance against the oppressive religious dictatorship.

“As Khamenei stated on March 31, he perceives the real threat to his regime not from military attacks, but from the uprising of the Iranian people and the resistance units of the Iranian resistance.

“The desperate clerical regime resorts to escalating repression and intensifying its terrorist and nuclear activities to escape the crisis of its overthrow.

“Therefore, it is evident that in these circumstances, the regime will again see its only option as intensifying repression and will attempt to settle scores with political prisoners under the pretext of the war with Israel.”

REGIME CHANGE PLEAS

It comes amid a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran brokered by the US.

Calls are now ringing louder for the Ayatollah’s regime to be taken down – and for a new democractic republic to take shape.

Trump hinted at regime change in a post of Truth Social as he demanded “Make Iran Great Again” – but the White House said it was not one of the authority’s official goals.

Maryam Rajavi, president-elect of the NCRI, insisted the “will of the Iranian people” is the fundamental change.

She said: “The proposal for a ceasefire and ending the war is a step forward for the third option: neither war nor appeasement.

“Let the people of Iran themselves, in the battle of destiny, bring down Khamenei and the dictatorship of velayat-e faqih.

“The people of Iran, in their century-long struggle, at tremendous and bloody cost, have repeatedly rejected the dictatorships of both Shah and Sheikh through successive uprisings.

“I repeat that we seek a democratic, non-nuclear republic, with the separation of religion and state, gender equality, and also autonomy for Iran’s nationalities. 

“This will bring peace, democracy, human rights, stability, reconstruction, friendship, cooperation, and economic development to the region and the world.”

THE Hoops lost for the first time since Easter Monday — when they were also defeated by Bohs — four days ago on a humbling evening for the league leaders.

Stephen Bradley admits getting “a kick up the a***” from Bohemians might be a good thing for Shamrock Rovers. But only if they right the wrongs he saw at Dalymount Park.

The Tallaght side remain top with a nine-point cushion to the Gypsies — who have two games in hand — and a run of 25 points from the last available 30 provides some perspective.

But Bradley acknowledged that his players must heed the warnings from their 2-0 defeat.

The boss said: “Sometimes in life and football, you need a kick up the a***, you know? Sometimes it’s not a bad thing.

“Would you prefer it not to be in games like that? Of course you would. But such is life. Sometimes you think it’s going right and then you get a slap in the face.

“It’s only a good thing if you put the wrongs right and that’s up to us to do that. It’s quite clear to see we were second best all over the pitch. We can have no complaints.

“You can’t play any game in this league like that — especially in a Dublin derby against a good team.

“But the beauty of football is it gives you a second chance. A lot of times in life when you get knocked like that, it doesn’t give you second opportunities. Football does.

“What we’ve been brilliant at as a group in moving on quite quickly — win, lose or draw.

“We don’t react to results and be all emotional with our week, that’s not how we do things.

“The players have been excellent for a large part of the season, we’ve got to look at us as a staff and what went wrong and then relay that to the players.”

This evening, the Hoops host a Waterford side that have caused them problems since returning to the top flight in 2024.

Bradley revealed Rovers’ coaches have paid close attention to the Blues as one of their players, Conan Noonan, is currently on loan at the RSC.

He added: “They’re creating a lot of opportunities and are playing really well.

“We saw that down there when we beat them 3-1 and they were the better team for the first 50-odd minutes.”

A WOMAN who was left feeling depressed because of her weight has shared the transformation she has had with Mounjaro.

Terri Griffiths, from the UK, revealed she had managed to lose a massive two stone in just two weeks with the weight loss jab.

Taking to social media, she shared before and after pictures of her two week transformation.

In the first picture, Terri looked noticeably bigger, but in just a fortnight, her weight had dropped significantly.

In the comments, she revealed that she had taken 2.5mg of the fat loss drug in the initial two weeks to achieve her results.

Now in week three, she was told to up her dosage to 5mg but had decided to aim lower with 3.75mg.

The weight loss hasn’t just helped Terri feel better about her body; it’s also made a massive impact on her mood.

She revealed: “Two stone down, depressed and unhappy, to finally getting my shine back.”

Like many medications, Mounjaro can cause unwanted side effects.

One common side effect for people is that they have low energy and digestive problems making them feel sluggish.

But Terri had three rules she stuck to in order to keep it at bay.

“I was feeling sluggish until I started to make sure I eat my calories, drink my water and take my vitamins,” she added.

Terri also revealed her tips to avoid negative side effects[/caption]

For those with constipation, a side effect from the drug she recommended Wellgard Gutstar.

The probiotic has ginger and fennel added to the supplement to make digestion easier.

The clip of her speedy transformation has since gone viral in her TikTok account @xxterrigriffithxx with over 200k views and 4,000 likes.

People were quick to take to the comments, congratulating Terri on her weight loss.

Others on the weight loss jab said they were hoping to achieve the same results.

One person wrote: “I’m on week 17 and I haven’t even lost 2st yet.”

Another commented: “I don’t know how, I’m almost 6 weeks and did not lose anything.”

“That’s amazing. I start my mounjaro journey on Monday. I hope I have similar results,” penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “Starting mine Sunday. Feeling nervous but mostly excited to see the change. You look incredible. Well done.”

“This is the type of inspiration I love to see. I’m starting on Mounjaro next month and can’t wait to see some results, hopefully like yours,” claimed a fifth

Someone else added: “I’ve been on Mounjaro for 11 weeks and I have 3lbs loss.. that’s it. How on earth?”

WITH summer finally here and our purses feeling tighter than ever before, if you’re eager to find a rosé wine that’s perfect for warm days and super affordable, you’ve come to the right place.

When it comes to rosé, there’s no doubt that Whispering Angel has secured itself an A-list reputation.

While Lidl’s left her extremely disappointed, she reveals the affordable winner you’ll need to nab[/caption]

The popular rosé comes with plenty of celebrity backing, with Adele, Lady Gaga and the Beckhams pronounced as big fans of the tasty tipple.

But unfortunately for those on a budget, it also boasts a VIP price tag of around £22.50 a bottle. 

However, luckily for those looking to cut costs on their alcohol stash, supermarkets have released a variety of similar styles that are much more cost-effective.

So, with the weather heating up and picnic season in full swing, here, Fabulous’ Senior Writer and self-proclaimed wine fanatic, Abby Wilson, tests out six of the high-street’s best bottles.

Breath of Paradise 

£10.99, Lidl

George Keller

Lidl’s offering scored a poor rating of 1 out of five[/caption]

I was excited to try the latest Whispering Angel dupe that hit Lidl shelves only recently, and while it looks practically the same, I have to say, I was thoroughly disappointed. 

Yes, it’s a nice bottle, but this good-looking blush tribute is not getting a thumbs up from me.

This Whispering wannabe might have the vibe of the real thing but unfortunately, it lacks the flavour.

If you like wine that’s bitter and vinegary, this Provençal tipple could be for you.

Yes, it will keep your bank account in the pink, but it lacks depth and to be totally honest, has a nasty acidic taste that quite frankly, tastes cheap.

For me, Lidl normally smash it out the park with their dupes, but in my opinion, this is simply style over substance. 

Unfortunately, it’s not giving me a ‘Breath of Paradise’. The only thing I’m noticing is a sigh of disappointment. 

There’s not much of a fruity flavour and it definitely needs a bit of lemonade to sweeten it up.

While aesthetically it looks the best of the bunch, the taste makes it the biggest loser in my books.

Ranking: 1/5 

Tesco Finest Provence Rosé

£10, Tesco 

George Keller

The Tesco Finest dupe wasn’t much better[/caption]

With the cost of our weekly grocery shop rising, there’s no doubt that many of our wallets are feeling the pinch. 

But if you’re wanting to scrimp on rosé, the Tesco Finest Provence Rosé may, or may not, be one to try.

Where my taste buds are concerned, it’s dry, weak and watery, with a somewhat tangy aftertaste.

Yes, it’s light, but that’s about it.

I’m normally a huge fan of the Tesco Finest range and can’t get enough of their epic microwave meals that are perfect for lazy nights, but this own-brand buy hasn’t cut the mustard for me. 

It’s said to emit “delicious stone fruit flavours” and has been hailed as “crisp and delicate”, but I’m not getting any of that with this beverage.

The only upside is that it’s cheap. You’ll be able to enjoy a summer BBQ and toast to all the cash you’ve cashed with this, so I suppose if I had to, I could force it down if it meant saving a few pounds. 

Ranking: 3/5

Château Roquefeuille Côtes de Provence St Victoire

£14, Tesco

George Keller

Things looked up with this Château Roquefeuille[/caption]

If you’re after a full body rosé wine, this bottle of Château Roquefeuille Côtes de Provence St Victoire should be one to add to your shopping list. 

It’s got good depth and a nice sweetness, with a fruity flavour of fresh nectarine.

You’ll now be able to nab it for just £12, making it over a tenner cheaper than the real deal

Abby Wilson

As well as having soaring character, with an intense, lasting taste, the expensive-looking bottle is sure to impress your dinner party guests.

It’s a gem of a wine that’s spot on when paired with a summer salad or a creamy pasta for an alfresco meal on a balmy night. 

At £14, it’s not the cheapest of the bunch – but if you’ve got a Clubcard, you’ll need to move quickly, as you’ll now be able to nab it for just £12, making it over a tenner cheaper than the real deal. 

Ranking: 3.5/5

Les Sarrins Côtes de Provence Rosé

£15, Tesco

George Keller

Another Tesco buy, Les Sarrins has a sharp but round flavour[/caption]

For those after a wonder-wine that screams liquid sunshine, look no further.

Wine enthusiasts will need to get their hands on a bottle of Les Sarrins Côtes de Provence Rosé, which has a sharp but round flavour.

It’s more than just a copycat – its deep flavour almost gave me goosebumps (in a good way).

It covers all bases – it’s a brilliant all-rounder wine that is sure to be liked by many at your next outdoor function.

It’ll get you ahead of the A-list but that’s not all, as it’s also a lovely bottle that’s perfect for picnics and pre-drinks in the garden.

Yes, it’s not a mega bargain, but it’s refreshing, elegant and gluggable, making it brilliant for those looking for a luxury pale pink wine that will dance on your tastebuds. 

Ranking: 4/5 

La Balconne Organic Provence Rosé 

£18, M&S

George Keller

M&S scored highly with 4.5 out of five[/caption]

If you can’t afford to splash the cash on Whispering Angel, here’s a wannabe that is well worth raving about. 

The La Balconne Organic Provence Rosé has been hailed by M&S bosses as “elegant” and “charming”, and I have to say, I agree. It reaches near the top of the dupe test with flying colours. 

It has a light but luscious flavour, with a nice tang that had me reaching for more.

It’s floral and fruity, with mouth-watering tastes of berries and wild herbs. 

It’s been described as “delicate yet complex” and for me, that’s spot on.

Yes, it’s the most expensive of the bunch and isn’t that much cheaper than the OG, but it’s definitely worth it if you want something that’s similar to Whispering Angel but not quite as pricey.

Not only does it taste great and is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, but to top things off, it’s also a gorgeous bottle too. 

Ranking: 4.5/5

Screaming Devil 

£12.97, Asda

George Keller

But it was Asda’s high-class rosé that took the top spot[/caption]

But if you’re eager to nab a rosé that’s bold but not too sharp, with a strong flavour that hits you straight away, look no further.

This Screaming Devil Côtes de Provence not only has a great name, but is of great value too.

It’s just like the costly celestial sip, but thankfully, a lot cheaper. 

This high-class bottle will save you an impressive £9.53 and not only that, it’s also sure to make summer picnics in the park much more straightforward too.

This thirst slacker from Asda is sure to ruffle the feathers of the big-name bottle

Abby Wilson

Thanks to the handy glass stopper, there’s no need for a corkscrew, so you’ll never find yourself desperately Googling hacks to remove a cork again – phew. 

It’s a lovely, modern bottle and has a sweet and refreshing flavour of white peach. 

As well as being vibrant, this thirst slacker from Asda is sure to ruffle the feathers of the big-name bottle, and has a tasty zest that left me pouring a second (and third) glass within a matter of minutes. 

So if you can’t make it to the South of France this summer, this dupe-tastic buy is a real winner and one that you’ll definitely want to stock up on this season. 

Ranking: 5/5
