Yes, good luck to both of you!

I'm in the same position, the interview is April 22 and I'm going. I am going to buy our return tickets for April 30 and pray that its all said and done by then. They will be refundable tickets of course.

Did you know that non refundable doesn't always mean non changable. Read fare rules carefully. Many non refundables allow you to change the tickets for a fee. The one catch is they have to be used within a year. They also have to be changes before the flight would have left. It is typically 200 or less for domestic flights. ( I have had it be as low as 50 ) Many times this is still much cheaper than a refundable ticket. Also make sure you have a non 800 number. Most 800 numbers are set up to only work within the US.

That is true, thank you for pointing it out. I did change my return flight date while I was in nigeria and it was about $200.. it was a non refundable ticket with NAA.
