You can use your naira denominated card but you will be charged in $.Most card limit is $1K,but Gtbank is $2K. I used my Gtbank card and was charged $1 to N330. chloe7: |

chloe7: There are a few options. Paying with a USD denominated card, paying cash at their office at MMIA or sending your booking ref and your cash to someone in the US to pay for you. Long thing but That's what Nigeria is making us do. God help us. |

chloe7: Before paying in USD, why don't you first find out from the airline their exchange rate. Last I checked, their rate is cheaper than the bank conversion rate. 1 Like |

Harjeehbaday: I think you should follow up with calls/ better still pay them frequent visits with your stomach (emotional blackmail) because the flexible market trading goes on everyday, let them explain to you the exact reason for the delay and let them let you know your chances, remind them that your travel date is fast approaching. I couldn't get from them though because my account is barely a month old but don't loose hope. As at last week Thursday,they said their rate was 285, I do not know what is obtainable at the moment. All the best. |

Lol @ chop $500 food for breakfast ![]() If your hotel accomodation is bread and breakfast, it would say so, otherwise you should get meal ticket. I flew them to China in 2014, i think 7 or 8 hour layover; we were given meal tickets, one covered dinner and the other breakfast although they dint give hotel accommodation , we were denied just because of this green pali, Nigerians were usually refused then. 9308]Who has used to Qatar and slept over in Doha? Can you go eat at a buffet in the morning? ![]() There's is a layover of 8hrs 30 minutes and they only give meal ticket if layover is over 11 hours. They gave hotel accommodation via email sent to me but I wanted to know since we there sleeping over and waking up in d morning can I go for free breakfast? Getting to Doha 11.30pm and departing 8.15am for Baltimore. Anyone used Qatar airways before? Please her make person no go shop 500$ food for breakfast ![]() [/quote] |

I think it's better to buy seats. My nephew was given issues on his return leg in March because they said he looks like a 2yr old, they had to show them his birth certificate. Miracletwinee: |
