VO: Why do you want to go to America Hi @kazchick. Sorry about the denial, but I think you might have been denied because of 1) Lack of strong ties to Nigeria and 2) Possibly your inability to fund the Trip if the father of your child decides to back out as there are no legal obligations... If you're due next month then you've kinda run outta time. Try again when possible.... pele. 1 Like |

Please I need your help with making a quick decision. Recent Mamas, Please between Emirates or BA Which has better care / treatment/ considerations for pregnant women or women with children? I know one stop BA flight to Houston is shorter than one stop Emirates to Houston, however I feel a shorter trip can still feel long if the treatment is poor or if one is uncomfortable. And a longer trip can seem short if one is comfortable. Please flight class on both flights is Economy. Please I appreciate your urgent response. Thank you. |

Cant speak for BA, but i used Emirates to Houston to and fro and i have no complaint. They didnt ask for port health fit to fly, just the one their website signed by your doctor. On comfort, Lag - Dubai flight was full, so no space to stretch, but Dubai - Houston was light, so i had enough space to rest and stretch, the cabin crew were nice and courteous. On return trip, adding baby ticket was easy and cheap, less than $100. My toddler, who came with my husband also on emirates, not with me, but we all returned together, was soo comfortable and stucked to the ICE all thru. She had all sort of sweet things to nibble on thruout the flight. The Layover for our return was overnight, we had dinner and breakfast at the hotel we were lodged and transported back to the airport in the morning. In all, Emirates is good in my opinion.

debby516: Thanks a lot Debby516, did you book your ticket directly on their website or through an agent you know or wakanow? Were you very far gone by the time you travelled? I'm looking at going at 35+1 do you think flight of 16:30hrs Dubai to Houston will be too stressful for me? And do you think the 15hrs Houston to Dubai will be too stressful for me and my baby coming back whether or not I have someone to help out on the flight? You mentioned you were lodged... I assume it was Emirates that lodged you right? Did you have to do / pay anything extra to get the accomodation? Just trying to picture the trip using your experience. Thanks a lot. |

Wow! Its good to know you're LA bound and Feb mum too. About airbnb accomodation, I must say the search wasn't easy, but with perseverance, u should be able to get something good at an affordable price. It took me so much time cos I was particular about some basic amenities( Tv, kitchenette,free wireless internet, washer n dryer, bathub) but at d end, i was able to book an entire one bedroom apartment for 38 nights at d rate of $2158 around hollywood area. |

VO: Why do you want to go to America Me: To have my baby VO: Where do you want to have your baby? Me: Houston My take on this is that your ties to return to Naija are weak. Secondly, the inflows into your account from your partners account is a tad suspicious. |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Omodadi2: 12:05am On Nov 08, 2017 |
kazchick: Sorry about your refusal. I also have comment about ties, maybe your job is not sufficient enough ties for you. And your babys child whom u arnt married and travelling with you is somehow questionable to fully supporting financially as stated. If youve gone for this interview earlier, reaplying would av bin possible. |

[quote author=oyibo4real post=62170284][/quote] I followed you and tried the pm again, 38 nights is that how long you are staying I really don't want to stay long but the dr's office said I ve to there at 35weeks so my stay is 8 weeks abt 57 nights, I really wanted to leave at 36 weeks, the accommodation I was referred to is $1,400 per month shared kitchen and living area but private room and bathroom. |

kazchick: My dear, first there is no quarntee that you will come back to Nigeria after delivery which they always check for.... Marriage/ family is normally a good yardstick or a well paying job that you cant abandon for greener pastures..... Secondly they may not even believe your story about baby daddy, cos there is no prove to that.... any body can form babydaddy, and anybody can transfer money into your account.... ..... and they are not sure he wouldn't bolt out of the picture immediately bills starts piling up.... cos sometimes it does as no one can really predict delivery outcome, we just hope for the best! It all boils down to concrete ties back home, and your ability to pay your bills..... |

I flew Dana from PH to Lagos last year at 32 weeks and had no issues. I was asked for a letter from my Dr saying I was fit to fly, I had it and gave them. The airline staff was very nice and went to make copies for me because he said I had to give one to the FAs on board. Ayotundesh: |

vethav: I eventually got it on the day of my flight. just few hours to my departure. it was so stressful for me cos I didn't want to stay an extra second in the US. Thank God for the time difference. I utilized the 7 hrs difference to keep calling them until they did after lots of issues though and bribery. it's a story for another day. God bless my country Nigeria. 2 Likes |
