Well that was interesting!!! :whistle: We've bonded over frustration, happiness, newspaper articles, letters, Chocolates, air fare, toilets....now what???

Anyone for a game of POOL???

I have been using international restrooms for many years and I still hate them all. why dont they keep water in the bowl??? Its cleaner that way. And what's up with the toilets that you actually stand on?? Seen these? Its like there are non-skid foot pads on the actual seat, for standing and welll.........hovering. Crazy! in Russia, you have to pay to use most toilets and paper is sometimes extra. hehehe.

well in most of South ASmerica you better carry your own TP because they never have any outside of the airports........ :wacko:

Egypt is the same...there is usually a woman in the ladies bathroom that will "hand" you ONE square of TP...umm :wacko: and that will dry WHAT???? But usually I carry my own..most public restrooms there dont have cause they use the Bidet and airdry??? I guess....ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww :blink:

well the mail just ran and nothing but bills :angry: I checked on line and nothing :angry::angry: .....are they just eating the hersey kisses and not working today :angry::angry::angry:

Well, I sort of expected no approvals today. I think they pushed to get alot of their desks last week...will resume today..and tonight or tomorrow we will see the results of going BACK to work today. I have to wonder....I would think they'd approve the file..then it would be stacked for some data entry person to data enter..and that generates the emails and updates?? Well, made sense to me. Anyways...I think tomorrow we will see more..and I think as the Thanksgiving holiday comes...we'll see a push to get these approved from VSC. Thats just my personal theory. who knows...

Fares:

I found a flight to Milan for the exact dates for $617, with a stop in London. I don't know if there is any way you could fly on days that aren't weekends, but as mentioned by others before, it's usually cheaper.

For Cairo, I found $880 on Alitalia with a stop in Milan. On British Airways, with a stop in London it's $982. On Egypt Air, nonstop from JFK, it's $823

Anyone else?!

Philadelphia to Damascus (I put philly because i saw you were from PA, is anything else closer?) I wasn't able to come up with first class, but for 12 Feb - 04 Mar, it's about $1,264 with a stop in London.

Um, gosh, this feels lame, with all you exciting world travellers. I'll be spending the holidays with family in Ohio. How about a ticket from any NYC airport to CVG on Dec. 23 to Dec 26th, give or take a day, but not Christmas Day?

EDIT: the cheapest I have found is a little over $300.

Thank you so much for all your hard work virgilionaire!!!!!!!!!!

I echo what Zee said, thank you Virgillionaire. Your efforts combined with Wendy's (and other contributers to her article), plus the multitude of letters written by members of our thread to their elected officials and media may have already influenced some positive change and I expect even more benefits for those coming behind us. Good luck to all of you here in our VSC thread. Best wishes and God's speed to you and your loved ones and your futures together. My package finally left NVC for the embassy so I have a lot to do now. Take care all and I'll be pulling for all of you, especially the old timers in here (and I'm not talking about age) :)
