Air France

[cbd2cai 0]

Well I didn't get that kick azz price from air france but I did just get a pretty good one from alitalia using airgorilla.com. That's the cheapest site so far that I've seen. To leave at the last week of August and come home Sep 1 will be $1,025 including tax and fees. It'll be hot as hell but I don't care...gives me something to look forward to!!!!!!

Yes, heat exhaustion, hehehe!!! But, seriously, the worst part about going in the summer is trying to do anything during regular daylight hours! So "BE EGYPTIAN" . . . get up late and stay out all night. It is wonderful at about 10pm and everyone is out . . . so you can go sit at the El Fishawy and smoke shisha or go to any of the cafes that are on the square going into the Khan el Khallili on the side where El Fishawy is located. Great people watching opportunities!

I want to spend it in Alexandria. I'm looking into the Rennaisance, now that we can prove we're married. It looks very beautiful and I think the temps on the ocean are a little easier than those in Cairo.

Did you actually book the tickets Doodle? What airline was that price for?

NO I have to wait for my tax return. I hate my company 'cause I don't have my w2 yet!!!

The airline is alitalia. They are having wicked cheap prices right now because they aren't doing too well financially.

I went to live with my husband after we got married also. I came back and I am glad I did because I am his sponsor and have to show income for him to get into the USA. If you are not having to do the Affidavit of support, go for it.

Hi,

Me and my husband sent our I 129F out in Jan 19. After I finish my semester I want to go back and live with him until we come back together. Does anyone have opinions about whether that is okay to do. We have a lawyer here. So I guess that if I give him all required papers, that we would be okay to go? Any estimates from Cairo people on how long a K3 is taking?

I filed for K3 10 months ago and counting. Interview was Dec. 6, processing began Dec. 15. You probably won't have any other involvement on your end unless you get an RFE. However, when it gets closer to packet 3/interview time you'll need the I134 plus proofs of income (and one for any cosponsor) plus any proofs of relationship you want him to bring to the interview.

End of August...crikey!! The humidity in Alex is a killer that time of year. Be prepared for misery. I LOVED Egypt my first trip...came home hating it after the second because of the summer heat and humidity, lack of a/c, etc.

I already booked my flight with Lufthansa . . . DFW-Frankfurt-Cairo . . . easier than going DFW thru New York then Paris . . . but probably a bit cheaper on Air France.

And, YES, it is cheaper to fly from the East Coast . . . I see good fare offers from NYC, Washington DC, Atlanta . .. but when you add on the extra flight from DFW . . . it goes up another $300-400 dollars.

Lufthansa is generally a better airline then Air France. Better pricing, better service. I have learned my lessons, I only fly with Lufthansa. I always hear people telling me stories of 'deals' they got with other airlines... but I just laugh inside, since Lufthansa (going throu an agent or online, not Lufthansa direct) is always much cheaper. I only use Lufthansa for International, Sky Europe in Europe and in the US United Airways (this one only cos of my points)

This is why I am going most of the time in Feb-March timeframe . . . I went once in the summer and decided that is not for me. I was going to try for October/November/December but kept having to move my dates . . . so now I am going in Feb. again. FYI, it can still get to 90 even then, lol, but typically it doesn't. What the Egyptians call "cold" is usually not so bad for me and I live in Texas so you'd think I wouldnt squawk about the heat . . . but we are used to our a/c here for sure!!! I guess it is all relative.

I wonder why... Air Italia has the worst customer service, even with the Air France merger...not much better. ANd you never get your points.

Actually a BiG FYI for all flying with Air France (or any SkyTeam Alliance) and using the frequent flyer point system, you missed your flight, your flight is over-booked or delayed you will not get the points. Even if it their fault. They only give points for pre-arranged flight schedules...no exceptions or adjustments! I learned this last year after fighting with them for 2hours on the phone

That will change once you visit in the summer. I was soooo happy to get back on that plane to come home.
