Pls my own family I have come again with my ticket wahala. Pls help me put this two airline in a scale of preference (turkish and ArikAirline). Considering the waiting time, the flight duration, adding infant ticket and comfort for preggy woman and also comfort for baby on the return leg. The agent said if I go with Arik she will refund us some money. Pls I need to make a decision cos hubby has given me within now and tomorrow to decide. Pls help me.

POE Testimony

Reporting live from Houston, got in yesterday via Turkish Airlines, flight was long but good.
arrived Houston airprt around 8 pm,it was so deserted.our flight was the only one that landed at the time. easy walk to immigration no queue at all. an old bald not friendly looking man attended to me.

me-good evening n gave him my passport
cbp-didnt answer,asked where I'm from instead
me-nigeria
cbp- why r u here
me- to have my baby
cbp- ohh u travelled all d way to come have your baby,why
me- I lost my first n didn't want to take chances wit dis one
cbp- where did u lose d baby
me- in nigeria
cbp- so why didn't u go to europe,its closer to Africa instead of comin all the way down here
me- well I could have but America's health service is still d best of dem all so I decided to come here ( I was shinning my teeth while talking) grin grin
cbp- nooo, tell me why America? uk, Germany n co also have very good services.. tell me why here? tld me to place me finger n look at d camera.

I didn't shake knowing I stated my reason at d embassy so he Cldnt threaten me,all nah shakara.

me- cos America has d most reliable services...still shinning my teeth, asked him if I can smile at d camera too grin

baba no even answer me tongue tongue

cbp- give me a better reason than dat...
me- dats my main reason for coming here (still smiling)
cbp- don't worry with my new president pple like you wouldn't b coming here so easily again,he is gona stop all this angry. tld me to stand smwer in d middle n called security excort.

in my mind,i was like hmm d almighty Houston secondary inspection here I come, God take control.

I was taken to d room, jst 5 pple were seated...I sat down n waited, wasn't up to 5 mins I was called by a nice calm looking guy

me- smiled n greeted him
cbp- he answer n asked why I was here
me- to have my baby
cbp- hv u contacted any doctor n hospital
me- yes
cbp- wat r their names
me- tld him n guess he checked on his system shaa cos he started typing
cbp- how much do u have on u
me- 8550
cbp- okay,make sure u collect n keep all ur receipts for cash or card payments n alwys bring dem along weneva u r coming to the states, also don't accept any form of aid or insurance.
me- okay,noted
cbp- alright u can go,welcome to America wish u a safe delivery.
me- smiled, said thank you n dat was it...

almighty Houston poe was defeated by d almighty God.

went to get my luggage n I was out.

all Glory be to God n thanks to all d lovely pple of this thread who take time out to answer pple's questions.
