I booked emirates with the 22 hrs layover where dey gave me and my party each complimentary hotel accommodation (separate rooms). . 4 xce meals tickets. .n visas. .we can actually do a quick still into dubai city while wifey rests thru b4 we do the direct 16hrs journey to dallas.
My take us, if u are not booking the direct flight from naij..a, tk one with long enough layover were u can really rest n refresh will b4 continuing ur journey. .by d way, dubai dallas n abj dallas is just an additional 2 hrs.



Olokings, thanks o..nice tip from you cos this is for a very short trip before the main trip so will be so cool..

In the spirit of thanksgiving to God and a thank you note to all contributors and silent readers in the group. I used JFK as a point of entry I connected through Paris. No questioning at Paris.
At JFK. I was only asked 5 questions as if the man was already expecting me and needed to ask those questions for the sake of formalities.
1. Why are you here- vacation and child birth
2. How long are you staying
3. Who are you staying with
4. Where do you work
5. What do you gave in your bag
He stamped me in for 6months without checking any of my proof of burden. Dansaki re o Ababa. I acknowledge you God for who you are in my life.
No secondary inspection just agriculture where they collected all my indomie because it's chicken flavour.
I am also encouraging others coming up put all hope in God and do your best in your documentation preparation. Cheers

@modath, thumbs up! Sometimes our silence could damage things. The fact that a particular doctor is rushed to doesn't necessarily mean he's very detailed and good.

Don't follow the crowd, research very well, ask questions and don't be shy about it. After all, it's your life and that of your baby (ies) that matter, also, you are paying for the services.


Thank you, nothing that belongs to you/ dear to you will ever cause you stress..

If not for a strong and resilient spirit, the attacks were almost making me feel like a defeathered chicken in harmattan...

All for trying to give a heads up, the attacks came and were not letting up, I still don't regret speaking up and would not respond to any PM with an unfamiliar ID...

In that fee breakdown, if no one finds it strange I do,

1.How does it work out that the hospital collects fees upfront and its collected on their BEHALF,

2.Someone's practice includes childcare but paed is charged seperately.

3.What the F is ADMIN CHARGES ?

4. None of the "convincers" has any 1st hand hospital experience to share like people here have done with places like Oakbend,MIHS,Del Sol,WHMC, Mobap etc... You get gist of how the nurses were,days spent,Freebies that were given and relatable stories like that not just a one way traffic type of thing.

I know someone that has used his services before and I even posted the quote she got from him here some weeks back when Nerf was hospital hunting but I guess Justwise felt I was marketing.. She had a good experience with the man though she gave birth naturally...
All in all, it's a personal decision.. You decide who you want to use!!
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 2 by segbas(m): 5:16pm On Jun 02, 2015
If you are flying Etihad to US, you will enjoy it because of their first class service, and also you will have your POE at Abu Dhabi and fly to US as local flight.

Hi babe, sorry for the stress, is your card a MC or a Visa?
Cos when I collected my card two days ago and as is the practice walked to the ops mgr to get my PIN..

While making enquiries about medical travel allowance, he looked at my card ,asked "are you travelling" & I replied in the affirmative. he immediately picked up the phone and was berating the customer service lady for requesting for a MC for me when she knows its visa that woks better but she assured him it has been cofigured to work.

I went back to the lady to express my fears but she assured me too that it works on ALL forms of POS terminals and I left it at that, but seems I will have to pay them a visit again cos I had high hopes, and was really working on the money order angle as well...

& how much is the rate you got ??
Thx.

You will have to buy two diff tickets to do that. Which isn't economical

Except they are partner airline like klm/ air france/ delta

I've checking the airline sites and I noticed that some of them have their cheap ticket outbound while some inbound. So combine the two might be cheaper than using one airline.

Good morning people, please for those who flew United Airlines back to Nigeria, is the baby entitled to any checked baggage? If yes how many bags? Thank you.
