Well, it's still illegal to get married on a tourist visa as far as i know, regardless what country you come from... so I'd rather do it the right way

My fiancé booked me flight from Philippines to Honolulu through EXPEDIA for only 489$. It's cheaper than other flights since one way for PH-HNL costs around 800$-1000$ . Not sure where you're going but try checking on EXPEDIA app or expedia.com, they have cheap flights there :)

Wow thank youuuu for ur information Reina ?

I will checkkkk now ??

Btw I wish you a safe flight to USA.

So happy u got ur visa on hand , gonna fly to USA great!!!

Hi guys any tips or website to buy airplane ticket online? ?

Clear your cache on your computer. Sites know when you are searching for flight deals on certain days to certain locations. The more you search the more the flights will increase. My fiance told me this and when I cleared my cache flights to Australia immediately dropped 300.00 dollars! Super helpful advice.

I meant clear your cookies, not cache, on your computer. I also have used webjet.com for my last two international trips with the best luck for prices (actually pretty amazing prices!)

Wow, congrats to everyone on all the progress and approvals!! It must feel amazing to reach the end and finally book that flight! I'm so happy for everyone :content:

My fiancé just FINALLY got his interview date! It's coming Monday, 12/12. We got delayed because of a business trip he had to take outside of his country.

I have no idea what to expect, there's only one review of our embassy on VJ and it's pretty old. :help:
