Only bad if you fly through London. Can also use it to fly domestically on AA pretty cheaply.

J/F is the way to go, too many to list here

Doesn’t seem like you have done any research at all.

So basically I was trying to transfer to British airways and they hit me with huge amount of fuel charges and it’s cheaper just buy from google flight. And I was trying to transfer to Canada airline it’s just same as I bought from good airline

Avios are best used for AA short haul domestic

If you transfer to Aeroplan several options with no fuel surcharges: United, Turkish, Air China, Air India, ANA to name a few.

If you travel to BA: AA, Qatar, Etihad to name a few

I travel to India business class and usually get $0.04 - $0.06 cpp

Hey fishes, can someone tell me how the 80c bracket works, i know i can get exempt upto 1.5lakh under it, what i wanna know is does PF comes under it or not? For example if my yearly pf deduction is 20k and VPF is 10k so now will i still be able to show investment of 1.5lakh under 80c apart from PF and VPF or i'll be able to get exemption on only 1.2 lakh( 1.5lakh-30k= 1.2lakh)?

Thank you in advance!!

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
