Abdslam also got the call today to pick up his visa tomorrow at 3:00 pm! We're both soooooo happy they didn't take too long to call him! Now, we're looking into airfare to get him over here ASAP! Any suggestions on cheap flights from Morocco?

Congratulations on a quick turnaround time for your visa!! I would check farecrawler.com for some one-way flights to the U.S.....I found some for under $1000, although they did involve 2 stops. (The more stops, the less expensive the fare!) I hope we have a need for a flight over soon as well! We wish you much happiness as you begin your new life together. :wub:

All the best,

~Beth & Salim

Do you see how big the sea is?

Do you see how big the sea is? My love for you is as big as the sea.

Do you see how far the sky is? My love for you is as far as the sky.

As big as the sea and as far as the sky I love you,

I waited for you, I called upon you, I drew you on the promenades,

You sorrow of my life, you tears of the flowers, you season of the birds,

How vast the forest is, my heart is as vast as the forest.

You who are drawn on my door, and drawn in my heart,

I waited for you a year, and throughout the year I would ask the walnut trees,

and I would see you in the sunny days, coming from the sunny days, and lost in the almond leaves,

How small is a tear, and I am just a tear in your way,

I want to vow a candle so that you would let me love you.

Fayrouz's song

Congratulations! :dance::dance:

I used www.kayak.com the last time I went to Morocco and thought it was a great deal but that was until someone else suggested www.farecrawler.com. It's a couple hundred dollars less there consistently AND you can often catch a flight that doesn't involve so many stops.

We booked ours on Royal Air Maroc because they have a non stop from Casa to JFK. We then booked a separate ticket from JFK to HHH. If you were fine spending the night in NYC you could book SUPER cheap from LGA to HHH.
