It is important too you know that if there was an option of a short layover time on same journey on their own site at the time you picked the long layover, you may then not qualify for this package. Hardly will a New York bound flight for example qualify for it, they have daily timely flight on that route....
Oh really? I just checked and saw a short layover at the same time. This is crazy. So,I will just sit my black a$s at the airport for 19 hours? I can't.
I have been calling them to confirm this,and nobody is picking.

Please, are you so sure about this?

I love flying Emirates...they're definitely one of the best.
Accommodation, hotel drop off and pick up, visa, dinner and breakfast will all be arranged by Emirates. I've flown them twice to the US and I've had no complaints at all.

Enjoy your trip...Travel safe!
Oh good. Thank you!

Hello, guys! Please, has anyone here travelled via Emirates airline? What was your experience like?

I have over 13 hours stop over in Dubai, do they lodge their passengers in a hotel, and if they do,are they to pick you up from the hotel afterwards?
Can one enter the city while there? Thanks.

I'm depressed? I'm sending suitors away because I won't settle for less? Lmao.

Why should you even settle for less? Set your standard as high as you want to, wo/man.
Too many whack minds in Nigeria. I have always said it;I'm not one of them. I don't belong there.

Lol, u enter dubai come run? Den no tell u say d place nor good for n9ja huslers?

Ok bro, pls...run from uk...if ur thinking of hustling, yanky/Canada is d real deal!

Now u have a kids and wifee, meaning u go leave dem behind to come yanky come husle...bro this will take atlist 2.5yrs to get ur kpali(green) if ur lucky....e no sound good for ear(my friends who did this, have been stuck here in yanky ,som of dem 4yrs and counting.,others 2 to 3yrs,..madam dey n9ja dey say she done tire to wait for den to come home), and pls forget about applying for a job from n9ja to come and work in usa.....it's gonna be really difficult!!..Yes, ur usa employer must prove that there is no one living in usa more qualified to get the job than u way dey n9ja..

Am currently in Canada, (visiting...day 4) my advice is.....go for express entry(apply with wife and kids).....

I have seen almost half a dozen families who came here via express entry(but ..so so many came tru...asylee)..and I tell u, dey are happy!!


Pls concentrate on Canada express entry, u or ur wife should apply depending on ur qualification..


9yrs ago, I applied for federal skilled work program...cic.gc.ca, my application was denied, dem say my work area is filled up(hotel manager), and dey sent .my cash via money order back.....$550..

Also gained admission in 3 schools in canada, but didnot go for visa application...(so many peeps disapointed me with account bal..not enough cash in my account)..

Today, am in canada Visa free..(greencard)...

SO DONT GIVE UP......nairaland is ur best bet for info..this site has impacted POSITIVELY in my life!!

Abeg, all discussions should be here ohhh, no one should send me pVt message....am so so so busy!!!
I be wan enter Yankee next month, but the person who suppose host me no gree take calls nor reply my mails. Obviously, he changed his mind. I'm happy he didn't bail on me while I was already in .

Please, can I rent a normal apartment for 5 months? Heard it's not possible since I don't have a PR.

Is it not same America that they are doing "Black lives matter" due to killing of blacks by white cops?
You mentioned no one coming to your aid as a Nigerian abroad, are you not informed that the govt has been sending planes to pick up stranded Nigerians from Lybiia?
You have relocated abroad that's good baby but you haven't given any valid points yet, I don't think you are working becos of time u spend here. If you are being paid per hour by this time you should be busy at work na
You don't think she's working because of the time she spends here?
Cave man! Sorry.

From your write up mehn it seems the shithole country is frustrating you. Anyways, people are carving niche for themselves. €8k is about 4m +. l guess if you got the Money, you will not know what to do with it. Opportunity comes to those who are prepared for it.
And why haven't you carved a niche for yourself?
People have claimed to have started with just a hundred thousand naira, and now have built mansions and businesses. Do same, since Nigeria ain't frustrating you.
You don't have to wait for 4m.

Of course, I wouldn't know what to do with 4m, should I get it. Same with many Nigerians who spent more than that amount to get educated abroad.

Give me that money and I will fare better with it than going to Europe. There are alot of ideas domicile in Nigeria. Capital has always being the issue. l have a cousin who has been over see for 20years though married but with no single room here
Imagine your mindset. Must he build a house in Nigeria? Some people don't wanna go back to the shit hole!e. Some people don't wanna show off to the soot inhaling Nigerians, by building houses they may never spend up to a week in. Some people wanna live and die where they now call home.

On doing business and faring better with €8k ? Your choice! Erm , it's all easier said than done. Ideas domiciled indeed.

Peace and love, bro.
