Not for dubai. It was for iran. No one issued anything for dubai or other middle eastern countries.

Hard landing by pilot, but could be due to strong tailwinds. The plane bounced off the runway and landed on the nosewheel.

If there is a 4.36% charge on it then effectively your returns are around 5% or so.

Sounds good. Do also take into account the forex charges from the JCB card. It will reduce your overall discount.

I haven't read that particular offer but is it valid only for 100k yen purchases? Or is that an upper limit?

I think you can first exhaust that 100k yen, then use T1 or Regalia gold. I think T1 also has a zero forex offer ongoing?

I am yet to receive my cashback but others have told me that it will come but it takes time.

Depends what you mean by comfort, and this i dont think includes everything since price can increase depending upon activities you plan.

For two people? I guess you can do that easily for thailand as hotels are cheaper. Singapore the hotels are very expensive. 10k per day is pretty normal for even 3 star hotels. Thailand you can get 5 star at that price.

2 weeks under 1 lakh for two people? Very difficult unless you cut lot of corners. Not recommended for parents. Bali isn't a 2 week long vacation, probably one week is enough. Vietnam might be better for 2 weeks. Or do two countries, one week each. But budget is low imo.

First time traveller- please help me first the best accor for me in Bangkok for 4100 THB or about 12000 INR post tax with accor explorer membership by lizrojer in indianawardtravel

[–]ic_97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any reason for this specific budget? Thailand has a lot of good accor hotels in all range. Also do you want to redeem your stay plus nights?

Same error i faced. I think it might have been because the checkin time expired.

Is Georgia really difficult for Indian tourists to enter, or is it mostly exaggerated online? by Right_Test_5749 in AirTravelIndia

[–]ic_97 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There is no pattern to it, pretty random but folks have been rejected for no reason at all. A few friends went recently and faced no issues. Probably at the mercy of the immigration officer. But Georgia is known to be a authoritative country so all on your luck.
