      Can't agree more. This is the airline that REFUSED to refund my very elderly parents' airfare after WESTJET cancelled their flight during COVID. They're heartless. Also, was on a flight with a dog directly behind me and refused to find another seat for me although I'm HIGHLY allergic. The stewardess actually laughed in my face. Another time they didn't bother telling people booked on flights from Vancouver to Mexico that you had to check-in in the DOMESTIC terminal. We got dropped at the international terminal and had to find out on our own that we were actually in the wrong terminal and then I had to walk with my 93 year old father about a mile to the domestic check-in. They didn't offer an apology or seem to care AT ALL. Being disappointed with WestJet is a common occurrence. Although I despise Air Canada, that's what we'll be flying when we're able to going forward.

      Yup, that's why the bookstores in airport terminals (do they even have those anymore?) used to do a brisk business in paperback novels, 'specially murder mysteries! Side note: Had the power go out one Saturday afternoon not long ago when I was listening to a webcast. "Dang, what am I gonna do," says I, as I reach for a book. Then I realized the program was on FM radio, too. Fired up a battery powered radio - and just kept listening to it, even when the power came back one. THE LESSON: Tech makes us lazy!

    Recap of US story (starts at 11:10): his travels to some "bad" countries resulted in his ESTA being canceled (which is perfectly legal, it's what the ESTA regulations prescribe). He then applied for a visa, first one was denied based on travel history. He applied again using social media connections, they requested documentation which he provided, his case is still pending. He is not banned; he just hasn't (yet) convinced a consular officer that his travel history has no connections with terrorism.

      I think they don't like it that Josh tries to be balanced about travelling in countries that are unfriendly towards the West. Yes he goes to Russia, and understands that their security has to be strict due to the war, he goes China and Iran etc too. Visiting Israel opens a can of worms the other way. You see if people talk normally about these countries they become much more difficult to keep demonized. Qatar Airways just banned him from being accurate and petulant as far as I can see.

    Fortunately for me, i do most flights that are overseas so i use an airline based out of the country where I am flying to and from, WestJet and Air Canada are easily among the worst airlines in the world at the moment.

However, it does not mean that your visa application was denied, but that it is in Administrative Procedings. It can then resolve within 2 weeks with an approval or still be stuck there after 2 years, depending on the case. Very hard to unstuck certain cases, unfortunately. However, they did not keep your passport. Next time you are in Germany, schedule an appointment with the embassy there.

    I worked in Canada for 18 months and took 2 leaves in the UK, one on BA where I was upgraded to business. The 2nd was on Air Canada where lots of stuff was not working, and I was TOLD what I could eat. The end of contract flight was back with Canadian but this time in economy for an hour, then upgraded seams having lots of air miles helps.
