Good day all, I am trying to buy wiffy's ticket to Missouri,I got a deal of 270k for her and our 18month old daughter on wakanow website(Delta). I am skeptical abt dis because I av read it here that to change date or add ticket is not always easy with wakanow and co. Pls how can I buy directly from the airline , I av tried their(Delta airline)website but was not able to and i don't stay in Lagos. Please , is there a number I can call to book the flight? Secondly, the itinerary is atlanta - LA Guardia - Kansas city (Missouri). I kW the POE will be Atlanta but pls will her luggage be checked to her final destination or will she need to pick it in Atlanta first? I am just concerned about having to carry load with big belle and 18 month old child. Kindly help with these questions . thanks
You are correct. Those promo tickets always get ish too change/ammend. Book it down ist then when wakanow calls u, u ask them about adding an infant procedure.
U can book directly by calling delta on 014483111.

@Neks nne na delta o!

Morning Ladies! (And gentlemen wink)

After a lot of consideration and family talk iv decided im going to Maryland for my 2nd missionary journey (March 2016 Mum).

I know the place is expensive but Im really trusting God that I will find a surprisingly affordable option. So... I'm looking for a partner who is going around the same time so we can work together. No be only Nef and Modath waka come tongue They be making us feel jealous tinz grin

Seriously though if there's any1 that has made up their mind to go to Maryland early next year, let's research together and prove that where there is a will there's a way.
Also, if u recently went please share your experience.... Not much on that zone this year on the thread. Thanks people and happy new month. Better is the end of a thing than its beginning so get ready for a mind blowing harvest this December. Muah!!!

Hello everyone!
I have searched and searched the whole part 1-3 for anyone who has been to Alaska for delivery and I have found nothing.
I seem to be on my own here .... Not been able to contact the hospital cos I've been dealing with morning sickness.
But just to ask one last time. Does anyone know anyone that knows anyone that knows any mum who had her baby in Alaska?
Meanwhile does anyone know anything about Minneapolis and Washington Seattle POE? Seems like the few airlines that route Alaska come into the US through that POE and we move on to Alaska from these POEs.
Please advice. Thanks
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by favoredgal: 12:35pm On Dec 01, 2015
Flew Klm. No fit to fly was asked

I think it's only in Abuja that Klm: air France does over sabi

I upgraded to economy comfort when checking for 120 dollars in total and was a very good decision. Was extremely comfortable

They were helpful all the way, transit in Amsterdam was ok (3 hrs) kept myself busy with the free wifi

Food was crap (but we already knew that- no airline has good food)

Poe- got to Houston, the lines moved very quickly,black American CbA. The guy said all these Naija women, we always come here to give birth, why? What if my baby gets drafted into the U.S. Army? Saw the correspondence and said hmm....this dr Fagbohoun.... We need to track him down. Also mumbled that they need to review this free Pali law- in my mind I was like yeah, whatever- are u white? Mschewww, even the fellow CbA he was talking to looked Chinese- you guys are obviously immigrants

Anyways sent me for secondary inspection - place was full, waited about an hour and half, when they called me and checked that I told the embassy I was coming here to deliver, they stamped me in and asked to see the receipts from my last birth- they weren't too happy to see letters (zero balance) and said to focus more on getting receipt like looking receipts (whatever that means) and not letters for this baby.

Went to agriculture- the guys were so nice, said my belly was big while I was slim so I must be having a boy

Asked me what i had, told them what I remembered and they dint check, just wished me safe delivery

I had palmoil, egusi, ogbono, crayfish, ground pepper, poundo, Garri, golden morn and pepper soup spice

All for my mom who is coming later... Don't want her to carry food at all before she forgets to declare

I for carry indomie for myself....chai

Safe delivery to all us mamas

Hi, went for my missionary journey this year. I bought my ticket through wakanow and called Delta to add baby ticket to my itinerary which they did without stress. They only checked my ticket it for each leg of the trip and added hers to it. You shouldn't have a problem.
quote author=Apple19 post=40562506]

Thanks mama. Just weighing my odds ni. Cos i don't know how easy it'll be adding infant's ticket on return with wakanow. Also connecting my flight to Houston with luggages. And hope there won't be much stress with my baggages and baby. Moreover, what am getting on wakanow is $173 to Newark not JFK. Calculating my cost Sef, person fit go spend more. It is well o[/quote]

Minneapolis MSP airport is not as busy as other airports,the immigration officers have time for you.i travelled this September just for visiting though pregnant but not really showing was called for secondary inspection wasted about 3-4hrs there. Travelling in January will try as much as possible to avoid MSP as my POE, but there is nothing prayers can not do
