When I went home for lunch trying to buy a ticket on cheaptickets the price jumped from 2,200 to 3,600 in a matter of minutes so I caved in on my return date I selected the 28 instead of returning the 30th so I was able to purchase the ticket for 1900. I was very stupid I didn't know they had night flights I could have come back to the USA the 29th at 11pm and it would have been cheaper. However for me to change my ticket now would cost me about 500$ more.

Should I change my ticket? The reason it's important is because they have the consular hour between 4 and 5 pm Tuesday and Wendsday of every week. My wife will interview on Wendsday the 23rd so if she doesnt get her pink I can go in that day between 4 and 5 to check on our case (as long as they are open and don't close early). However If I left on the 29th at 11PM I could also go in that day to check on the case as well. Do you think this will be important to take it off?

Is it possible if she doesnt get her visa if I could go into the airport and ask for a later return date by a day or two? And if so how much would it costs on average and has anybody ever done it? Also I could probibly take another week off at a future date and get a ticket for 1,000 and fly there another time might help out more.

Most airlines will allow you to cancel within 24 hours of booking your resevation. Cheaptickets has the same policy. You can call them at (888)922-8849.

Good luck to all,

OMG Thank you THank you Thank you. I called the lady got her on the phone she said I can cancel I waited until I got the AP number for the new ticket and then I told her to cancel it. The ticket was only 100.00 more and they only charged me 7$ service fee. I will leave the 12th and come back the night of the 29th at 11:55pm so I will get to spend 3 extra days with my wife not only that if there is a problem I will be able to go in the 29th and do something about it.

The only part I'm worried about is that I had to delete my credit card number on there because it was maxed out with that ticket purchase and I put my debit card number on there instead so the account they have showing up on there is my debit card so not sure if they will be able to refund my credit card or not since they took it off there.
