Hello,

Is anyone traveling to the US this month with Qatar Airways? Any issue with layover at Doha?

Yes, no issue by the grace of God. Just maintain the rule

Japsylee:
My advice will go to when booking an airline from the u.s.
Southwest airline will be clearly better for you cos they allow u two boxes while u pay for your luggage in delta and also it's cheaper if u book on time.

Okay thank you bro.
Please do you know weather people landing in New York will quarantine themselves before proceeding to their connecting flight?

good day to you all, I want to book my flight now to Nashville from Lagos

1. I see a Turkish airline from Lagos to new york- then I will find my way from JFK to Newark for my connecting flight to Nashville, is it advisable to book that flight? if yes does the covid 19 test requires you to pass through JFK to NEWARK airport? ( please note Turkish airline doesn't fly to Newark )

2. Is it advisable to book a flight separately, I wanted to book a Turkish airline from Lagos to JFK, then book another flight from JFK to Nashville like Delta airline, does I need Covid 19 test to pass through JFK for a connecting flight? please I need your responses and advice

3. It is advisable to book Kenya airline from Nigeria to JFK then Delta airline from JFK to Nashville,

There is 6 hrs different from first and second flight
Does covid 19 required to pass through JFK for connecting flight or covid 19 to board Kenya airline.

Thank you all, God bless you.

nelem:
Option 2 should be your best bet.
1. Lagos to JFK

2. JFK to BNA

ensure you put into consideration some hours before you board your BNA flight (i would suggest at least 6hrs) to manage inconveniences & all

Thank you for this information,

I think I will fly Kenyan airline from Lagos to JFk then delta airlines from JFK to NASHVILLE. because there is 7 hrs different. When I will arrive JFK and departing JFK for Nashville.

fkj950ax:
New York currently requires a Negative COVID Test from some countries, so confirm the list on NY.GOV.
It changes almost every other day

Let the airline handle all the connection flight issues. They don't fly there, but should have codeshare agreements.

Option 1 or 2 will stress you. You check out of JFK, make your way to LaGuardia Airport (Domestic) or Newark Airport in New Jersey to board for Nashville. Transport. Routes. Dragging your luggage. Finding terminals etc etc for a visitor can be overwhelming. And make sure there is like 5 hours between flights so you aren't under pressure to meet a flight 90 mins away

Thank for this information, I think second option will be okay, there is 7hrs in between.

I want to fly via Kenya airline. I think that will be fine considering the price variations of some airlines now .

good day to you all, I want to book my flight now to Nashville from Lagos

1. I see a Turkish airline from Lagos to new york- then I will find my way from JFK to Newark for my connecting flight to Nashville, is it advisable to book that flight? if yes does the covid 19 test requires you to pass through JFK to NEWARK airport?

Greetings from Toledo, OH! I left naija on Wednesday the 16th from MMIA, Lagos. Flew KLM through Amsterdam to Detroit. Arrived here around 1:19pm local time. The flight to Amsterdam was about 6hrs. KLM served us better jollof rice with diced fried plantain & chicken��, they also gave us breakfast we would eat during our layover at Amsterdam. After the 5hrs layover it was time for boarding again, this time it was Delta airline. Flew 8hrs to Detroit.
Poe went thus:
He beckoned on me to come forward.
Him: hello
Me: hello (with smiles) I gave him my passport
Him: look to that screen over there & take off your mask, it will capture you. I did as he directed
Him: please pass me your sevis. I gave him the sevis receipt, lol
Him: what about the other document, i20 I meant to say sorry. So I gave him the i20
Him: what school are you going to?
Me: WIU for my masters degree
Him: great! You’ll be here for how long?
Me: 2years as my program is for 23 months
Him: do you have any fresh vegetables, meat products?
Me: no I don’t
Him: stamps me in and said do have a lovely stay here in America
I moved over to pick my luggage & was about going out when I was directed to the other side for agricultural check.
I thought since I already told the first guy that I don’t have meat products I won’t be checked again, lol.
They were 5 of them there, 3men & 2 women
First man: do you have fresh meat, pork, fresh vegetables, garden eggs? No I don’t
Him: so what do you have here? Peanuts, dried fish & some local spices.
So they searched & brought out everything from my 2 bags. They saw my small kilishi inside the Ghana-must-go bag��‍♀️
Second guy: where did you come from, how is Lagos? How long have you been in Nigeria. Told him I’ve lived there all my life. So this is your first international trip. I said yes.
Him: I thought you said you have no meat
Me: he (pointing to the other officer) asked me for fresh meat & I don’t have that
Him: ok we don’t accept any meat products here. Next time you make a list of all the food items you’re bringing in & give it to the guy that stamps you in, do you understand? There’s usually a penalty for bringing in prohibited foodstuffs. It can be from $300-$1000. Do you understand?
Me:yes sir, thank you.
He saw calendars while checking the other luggage that had my clothes. He asked what it was for & I told him they were for my sis
Him: you have a sis here? Is she coming to pick you up?
Me: yes, she stays in Ohio, Toledo precisely
Him: which school are you going to? Why did you pick that school?��
I just told him the school offers my program & I’m interested in an ongoing research. He gave me a thumps up & told me to pack my things back into my bags & enjoy my stay

Congratulations, have a nice stay and study well.

Plz did you do covid 19 test in Nigeria?

seyewest:
I wish you the best during your stay in U.S and please be very careful... Covid-19 is real.

Congratulations, have a nice stay and study well.

Plz did you do covid 19 test in Nigeria?

Thanks to God almighty for the approval of my Visa, and for everyone's contribution.

Visa Interview transcript:
Mine is quite different from the typical transcripts. Let me say it exactly as it was
Interview date: 11th December 2020. 8 am. I left my hotel room probably by 7 a.m and trekked to the US consular office in Lagos. It was just a 5mins walk. I did that to calm my self. I was probably the 15th person interviewed today(Not sure but people had already queued up inside).


V.O: Good morning
Me: Good morning

VO: Pass me your i-20 and passport, please
Me: (I did)

VO: Place your fingers on the fingerprint reader
Me: (I did)

VO: (typing on his computer. After some seconds). How was China?
Me: fine

V.O: (keeps typing) so, you were there when the pandemic started?
Me: yes

VO: Yeah I understand. it was quite a terrible situation I guess.
Someone came into his office and they discussed. He left for 2 mins.

VO: Sorry for that
Me: No problem

VO: Doctorate right?
Me: yes

VO: Good for you. (keeps typing). Okay, I am going to be approving your Visa. (Then the rest was history).
(Gives me white paper). Have a pleasant trip and merry Christmas.

Me: Thank you (I walked gracefully. It can only be God).


I don't think any student was denied today. It was only one Visa officer present today and he was very nice. I think my interview was probably the fastest. I wasn't asked the typical 'where will you be going and what will you be studying question'. Although I had full funding. God is good.

I am not a frequent posted and I think it may be my second post but I valued the information I got from this trend. Thank you and God bless.

If your emergency appointment was approved. Please keep checking. You might see a date.

Congratulations bro, I tap from this. Simple and easy. It can only be God at work. God favour will follow you through as you move on in life to another land.

God let your favour locate me and everyone that trust in God.. .

The fastest transcript.

Plz I want to ask a question and I need a direct answer and way to go about it.
my passport will expire next year April 2020. Though I think I can only renew the passport when is 6 months or less to the expiry date.
presently I have 8 months to the expiry date .
I wish to go for my student Visa interview by October 2019 because I'm to resume class by January 2019 I want to do that on time
I'm considering the possibility of seeing a date earlier. that why I want to choose October.
so, if I choose October can I use my present passport? that will be 6 months and some weeks to the expiry date.
I don't know if I can do that .
please what do you think I should do?
shld I wait till November to renew the passport before applying and what is the possibility of seeing a date around this year again.
I will appreciate your responses.
thank you and God bless.

I appreciate everyone contributions on this
"Questions "

Have renew my passport, I use two weeks to do that. Success stories awaits everyone in Jesus name Amen.

AgreatMan:
Stop listening to all these Dem say...Dem say. I renewed my last passport 11 or 12 months before expiration but I understand situations were different. But your current situation definitely warrants a new passport. Go and start the process fast as I heard that this new passport thing is taking a bit longer than before.

Okay. bro Thank you so much

walex57:
Bros go and renew your passport ASAP! infact choose an expedited process for renewal if it's available because they will not allow you in come January 2020, at the POE. you need at least 6 months validity left on your passport at the port of entry not when applying for a Visa.
Renew your passport, go for your interview in December and if all works out well fly out December or January to resume school on time.

okay, thank you bro, I will do that
