2h before flight is too early on a Friday.
45min drive. Max 15min security. Easy.

Google maps + "arrive by" estimate

630

Take the L, blue line is close and about 45 mins compared to hour drive.

630

Welp after all I raged too hard last night and ended up just pushing to a later flight....

Bain mgr OP?

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.
