psydroid | scientes, do you need some kind of transit visa to go from one airport to the other? | Sep 26 22:12 |
scientes | no, you need a full tourist visa for that | Sep 26 22:13 |
scientes | but I have a US passport so am eligible for a visa waiver | Sep 26 22:13 |
scientes | now its gatwick->ludow | Sep 26 22:13 |

scientes | its only 16 lbs | Sep 26 22:14 |
scientes | and i have `17 hr layover | Sep 26 22:15 |
psydroid | you can always decide to buy a ticket once you have gone through immigration, but then it will be more expensive | Sep 26 22:16 |
scientes | the thing is is that will the more normal ticket i would still have to transfer airports in moscow | Sep 26 22:16 |

scientes | psydroid, they extended to EU line to also cover US and a few other countries | Sep 26 22:17 |
scientes | so it should be the same | Sep 26 22:17 |
scientes | is that Gatwick, or Heathrow? | Sep 26 22:17 |
psydroid | oh, then it shouldn't really be a problem | Sep 26 22:17 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.nationalexpress.com | Gatwick to Luton Airport coach from £20 | National Express | Sep 26 22:25 | |
scientes | yeah thats what i'm looking at | Sep 26 22:26 |
scientes | this ticket is so cheap that taking the cello now makes sense | Sep 26 22:28 |
psydroid | when I was living in Dublin I spent an entire summer travelling all over the UK on weekends, so I have quite a bit of experience with travelling options, although it may not be as much as people who live there have | Sep 26 22:28 |
scientes | however the price will probably go up in the next week and a half until i get the visa | Sep 26 22:28 |
scientes | and its kinda insane to buy a ticket without a visa | Sep 26 22:28 |
psydroid | yes, that is a problem | Sep 26 22:29 |
scientes | also, I'm wondering if traveling with a cello on a tourist visa is a problem | Sep 26 22:29 |
scientes | but $235 from san francisco to moscow, that is fucking insane | Sep 26 22:30 |
scientes | oh, i guess the great circle distance is only 1/4 of the way around the earth | Sep 26 22:32 |
psydroid | it's a lot cheaper than what I can find using some websites for low cost flights | Sep 26 22:34 |
psydroid | and people ask me how I manage to fly for so little | Sep 26 22:34 |
scientes | well some of the tickets i found like this were only 3 1/2 hours between airports in london, which is impossible | Sep 26 22:35 |
scientes | this one is 17 hours | Sep 26 22:35 |
MrGreenFriend | what sites do u use for cheap flights? kayak.com? | Sep 26 22:35 |
scientes | psydroid, well there is a ticket on google flights through lisbon for 330 and i thought that was cheap | Sep 26 22:36 |
psydroid | MrGreenFriend, I think I used that one before, but there is also vliegtickets.nl | Sep 26 22:40 |
scientes | actually, considering a checked bag on this flight is $80, or have the cost of the ticket, that is enough of the $235 (and i get a second carry-on with the cello) that it seems to make little sense not to take the cello | Sep 26 22:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | I filed my husband's adjustment of status. | Sep 26 22:42 |
psydroid | I would do it too, yeah | Sep 26 22:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | Haven't gotten the receipt yet, but they said it takes about 3 weeks. | Sep 26 22:42 |
scientes | so with the checked bag fee (the $330 ticket comes with two checked bags) they are the same | Sep 26 22:42 |
psydroid | it's a no-brainer, really | Sep 26 22:46 |
scientes | yeah there are two tickets like this, one on november 8 for $260 and one on november 18 for $235 | Sep 26 22:46 |
scientes | the first one has an extra layover in lisbon, and the second is super comfy with direct sfo->gatwick | Sep 26 22:47 |
psydroid | if your goal is going to London and then on to Moscow and not also visiting Lisbon/Portugal, then the second one is the one you want to get | Sep 26 22:50 |
MrGreenFriend | psydroid, thx | Sep 26 22:50 |
scientes | yeah but i also don't really want to hang out in the US | Sep 26 22:50 |
scientes | but I guess there is a really cool hike I could do | Sep 26 22:51 |
scientes | it will just strap me a little for cash | Sep 26 22:51 |
scientes | and hiking in november winter is kinda insne | Sep 26 22:51 |
psydroid | I understand, so maybe going through Lisbon isn't actually too bad? | Sep 26 22:53 |
psydroid | maybe the sooner you get into Russia, the better | Sep 26 22:53 |
psydroid | as it's definitely going to be cheaper | Sep 26 22:53 |
scientes | and that 18 november flight is even pushing my foreign earned income exclusion | Sep 26 22:55 |
scientes | cause the US is arrogant to try to tax foreign earned income | Sep 26 22:55 |
scientes | on its citizens | Sep 26 22:55 |
psydroid | I know | Sep 26 22:55 |
psydroid | a friend of mine is planning to leave the US | Sep 26 22:56 |
psydroid | he stayed in Sweden this summer and is now applying for jobs there | Sep 26 22:56 |
scientes | I have some family in Sweden | Sep 26 22:56 |
psydroid | he told me you have to pay quite a bit of money to be able to give up your US citizenship | Sep 26 22:58 |
MinceR | to whom? | Sep 26 22:59 |
scientes | MinceR, the US state dept. | Sep 26 22:59 |
MinceR | ic | Sep 26 22:59 |
scientes | and it was free before the FATCA law | Sep 26 22:59 |
MinceR | pretty nasty racket | Sep 26 22:59 |
scientes | yep | Sep 26 22:59 |
scientes | but if you just don't need to return to the US you can just travel on your foreign passport | Sep 26 23:00 |
MinceR | they'll tax your income forever though, won't they? | Sep 26 23:00 |
scientes | the thing is that passports are internet-verified these days | Sep 26 23:01 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-ircz.de | IRCZ makes your life worth living Post object | Sep 26 23:01 | |
scientes | and the US will suspend that data if you don't pay the extortion racket | Sep 26 23:01 |
scientes | and I feel this issuing country determining how a passport can be used thing to be quite a racket | Sep 26 23:04 |
scientes | there was a huge scheme at the Tel Aviv Ben Gurion airport to let people with suspended passports leave | Sep 26 23:05 |
