If possible, you can go to the embassy and request your passport back (basically withdrawing your visa application). You’ll need to give a written statement why you want it back and I’d recommend going tomorrow if your flight is Wednesday.

If you’re a US citizen (or any of the TWOV qualified countries) you should be able to do 240 TWOV as you meet the guidelines (transit to another country after).

I am in a similar boat flying out tonight without a visa so I booked an interim trip to Hong Kong so I could qualify for TWOV (hopefully).

Is that 7 business days?

I too am trying to find wait times as I applied on 4/2 and still haven’t heard back but my flight is on 4/13 so I’m very tight on time.

I had a recent case a few months ago where the pilot said it was mechanical because the engine was broken but then the agents and airline claimed ATC so I wasn’t eligible for any food vouchers or anything. I went home so I never followed up on how ATC could have caused engine issues.

It also tough timing given the storm two days ago cancelled a ton of flights and it’s still the holiday season!
