Best airline in the world (in my opinion). you are gonna enjoy Istanbul airport if you have enough hours for stopover. Enjoy your flight man!
Turkish airline is good but not best airline (in my opinion )

The president of USA is not that powerful.......the system is designed with checks and balance and u have congress to check that ... hence why Obama could not do most of his promises .

Part 2 of the Travel Transcript
First I thank God for a safe trip, it's been God all the way.
So after spending about 12hours at Istanbul checking out all the different flavors of burgers they have, (tried chicken and chips too) and exploiting the WiFi wherever I found it, we boarded at 5:45. Went through normal checks, passport and I-20, (this time it was the big Airbus. The food was on point!) slept, woke up, watched a movie. After 10 long hours, we arrived Washington Dulles. I promptly filled the customs declaration form for all the Naija food I was carrying.
Then stood in line for CBP screening. Was quite busy today, spent like 1hr 30 mins on the queue.

I arrived and handed him my passport and I-20 first
CBP: hello, pls take off your cap
Plauses: sure!
CBP: ok that's you, are you a returning student?
Plauses: No, new student
CBP: okay, where are you going?
Plauses: West Virginia Uni
CBP: I see you're going for graduate studies, did you have your undergraduate here in the states?
Pls uses: No, Nigeria
CBP: so how did you get this admission?
Plauses: was a very competitive process, took standardized tests and applied, went through series of interviews to evaluate academic and professional prowess and they were quite impressed with my credentials because I was offered a full GA.
CBP: oh I see that's good congratulation. So this includes living expenses too?
Plauses: yes it does.
CBP : are you carrying any foodstuff?
Plauses: yes. Mostly dried foods
CBP: do you have any wet foods/liquids?
Plauses: No all dry foodstuff
CBP: how are you getting to Morgantown today?
Plauses: I booked a local flight to WV
CBP : okay great, welcome to America, here's your I-20

I left, went to claim my luggage and ran upstairs for my connecting flight boarding pass. They charged me $30 for each of my boxes because they said I am only allowed my Hand luggage and laptop bag. Every other checked bag would cost $30. So I paid $60. Would have paid more because my boxes were over 50pounds. But the guy asked me to just remove stuff and put inside my hand luggage that he wouldn't weigh that.
Concluded checking in, and the hunt for free wifi commenced,
congrats....very detailed transcript. ..go n succeed

Checking in at Nnamdi Azikiwe International wasn't so hard, got to the airport by 9pm. The bags were heavy so I needed a trolley. The person wey wear white for there tell me say na N400! i pay Shaa. Went past the scanners, go meet like 4 different uniformed people who just want to take a look at your passport. Then went to weigh my bags. Of course it was over! But it didn't cost me more than 3k. The check-in staff were courteous. Picked up my boarding pass and headed to customs to give them the forms. They come begin wind me for there say as their brother wey I be, I must drop something. I Shaa give them the last 1k wey dey my hand. Come waka go upstairs dey wait for boarding call.
So Aviation fuel wahala come follow, my flight was supposed to leave at 11:45, but they said there was no Aviation fuel in Abuja. And they cancelled our flight, and rebooked us on a smaller airplane that was to leave at 1:30pm. With an additional stopover at Niamey just to refuel. Long story short. I arrived Istanbul at 11am this morning. Waiting for my connection at 5pm
finally Wi-Fi don show face....I am following your transcript oooo. Be safe

Sorry about ur Visa denial, bro
According to ma own critique, no insults intended though.
1st- obviously from your past questions about "should I sign my I-20", I'm very sure u ain't confident enough in ur convo with d VO
2nd- I think u bleeped up in statement about "resigned because of ur app"... who does that
I think this reply may have tripped d VO off n tagged u as "unserious"
Pple don't quit work jz cos of US schools app, pple dt I know (Cutemorgan, texrem etal) quit dere job recently wen dere travel date is near
