Hidden City Ticketing: A Response to Rising Airfares and the Dollar Dilemma in Iraq, 18 DEC

 Hidden City Ticketing: A Response to Rising Airfares and the Dollar Dilemma in Iraq

The cost of air travel has seen a significant surge in recent years, leading to a rise in an exploitative practice known as “hidden city ticketing.” This method involves savvy travelers purchasing a ticket to a less popular final destination with a stopover at their actual desired destination, disembarking at the transit stop, and forfeiting the remainder of their journey. A cost-saving technique that leverages the fact that airlines often charge less for indirect flights.

Hidden City Ticketing: Frugality or Fraud?

As Kathleen Bangs, a former civil aviator, illustrated with an example: a direct flight from Minneapolis to Miami might cost $500, but a flight from Minneapolis to Jacksonville with a transit stop in Miami might only cost $350. The passenger can save $150 by simply not continuing the journey to Jacksonville. While such a practice is not illegal, it is frowned upon by airlines as it violates their ticket terms and conditions.

According to travel expert Scott Keyes, such practices not only deprive airlines of potential revenue from direct flights but also lead to operational issues like delays and lost sales from seats that could have been sold to other passengers. American Airlines has emphasized that such practices are strictly prohibited under their carriage terms and agency agreements.

Dollar Dilemma in Iraq

On the other side of the globe, in Southern Iraq, new regulations aimed at controlling the black market exchange rate have made it difficult for citizens like oil sector employee Harith Hassan  to withdraw their full salaries in dollars from the bank. Despite having vast dollar reserves exceeding $100 billion, Iraq has imposed these measures to curb the burgeoning parallel exchange market and comply with international rules set by Washington.

The official exchange rate is 1,320 dinars to the dollar, while in the black market, it can go up to 1,600 dinars. The Central Bank of Iraq has decided to conduct all commercial transactions in Iraqi dinars instead of dollars from January onwards, creating a substantial reduction in the available foreign currency in the market. These measures have had a significant impact on various sectors, especially those dealing with Iran and Syria, which are under sanctions.

Travel Hacks and Future Projections

Simultaneously, some families have managed to drastically cut down their travel costs by maximizing credit card sign-up bonuses, accumulating transferable credit card points, and utilizing travel perks offered by airlines. However, this strategic long game requires time and effort to master. According to a study by Kayak, domestic airfare, car rentals, and hotel bookings are expected to decrease in 2024 compared to 2023. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has projected a net profit margin increase to 2.7% for 2024, despite the challenges of high borrowing costs and limited capacity.

JUDY NOTES, 18 DEC

 Judy Note: What We Think We Know as of Sat. 15 Dec. 2023:

  • On Mon. 1 Jan. 2024 the new Quantum Financial System (QFS) and Global Currency Reset will officially launch for BRICS participating nation’s gold/asset-backed currencies on the Star Link Satellite System.
  • On that same Mon. 1 Jan. 2024 the BRICS Gold/Asset-backed XRP Digital Currency would officially be considered the Global Standard for international trade, with all participating nations’ currencies trading at a 1:1 with each other.
  • Bank Accounts of The People  of all participating BRICS Nations have been mirrored onto the QFS. The People will gain access to their accounts by going to an official Redemption Center to obtain cards, phones and computers that work on this fully secure system that will only allow the owner of the account to have access.
  • The Iraqi Dinar, Kingpin of the Global Currency Reset, revalued in-country some time ago; has been trading on the back screens of the Forex for weeks and exchanging the new Iraqi Dinar rate at a 1:1 with several countries currencies in their exports and imports.
  • On Wed. 6 Dec. 2023 the fiat US Petro Dollar was officially removed from the trade of OPEC Oil. Over 130 countries including OPEC members no longer would use the fiat US Dollar for oil and gas purchases, challenging the long standing dominance of the US Dollar as the basis for international trade.
  • Since then US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced that, “US Treasury Bonds are not being accepted by anyone and $26 Trillion in US Treasury Bonds were about to be dropped.” The US Dollar value began to tank. https://english.news.cn/20231215/06b256de75c14649a0f4479235664f11/c.html

 Their fiat Petrodollar was now dead and as their Global Banking System collapsed, it was expected that they would retaliate with Worldwide Terrorist Cyber Attacks.

An RV of currencies in 209 countries aided by the White Hat Global Alliance Military would very soon be victorious over this Deep State Cabal.

  • Petrodollar Endgame Moves Even Closer: The UAE just stopped transaction oil in U.S. dollars. BRICS now controls most of the world’s nuclear arsenals, oil and precious metals & rare earth minerals.
  • Rumored Timing:

    • Fri. 15 Dec. Worldwide Banking Crash, Media Blackout and Ten Days of Darkness begin. The World Bank is expected to collapse on Friday December 15, 00:01 ET
    • On Mon. 1 Jan. all gold/asset-backed currencies across the Globe would be on par 1:1 with each other; in the US Social Security benefits will be much higher and the SS R&R payments would start on a monthly basis.
    • Tues. 30 Jan. 2024 deadline for implementation of Protocol 20 by major corporations around the world that have interfaced their networks on the QFS.
    • In three to six months the Rodriguez Trust will begin to administer “universal basic income” for citizens of all GESARA-compliant countries. The amount per individual or family will depend on the status, needs, employment level and age of the person/family and will work to encourage people to work if they can.

Here are some more notes I tried to get FROM WOLVERINE PM CALL to add to Big Skye’s great report!!! (Thank you Skye !!) trigger groups in Zurich are being paid. Trump is in reno tomorrow, something will happen tomorrow, all saying right after tomorrow, but others say on Tuesday. We have been waiting for tomorrow.

Mauricio is getting the authority to release funds, he is waiting for the light to open the floodgates. He is the #2 Guy in the RV Trump is first. Lucky to meet him. I have heard that a lot of sources say tomorrow may be the day it will happen, say it is lining up for tomorrow. I pray it comes to fruition for tomorrow.

No need to have a Humanitarian project for Tier 4B, and no obligations, but the big whales, need projects, as they will get billions of dollars, and they need projects with their money. For people like us, no project is required, but they would like us to do good things with our money. For those who planned projects for a long time, these people are in special groups to do projects, so they would be pleased that those groups have projects. Many people have been pushing humanitarian projects for years, and they have made money off of it for years, but no, no need for a project to get paid.

Skye will do a presentation in 5 minutes, but we have had no confirmation at all, but we hope she will be able to pull it off this week. It is not her fault, the alliance needs to get it confirmed and do a follow-up for it to happen. I do not understand what is going on Skye. I have heard it will be a shotgun release, which will be fantastic. I spoke to a huge whale, and this guy called me and told me “We are going to have a good Christmas” whom I cannot name. The Pentecostal group is all lined up, they sang a song I sent to you guys, where they are saying Merry Christmas and all Cheerful. I think we will have a great Christmas.

Some say the EBS, I don’t know, I prefer it to come later, as people will be afraid to go outside, I prefer it to come after the exchange, especially if people have no funds to buy food. Some people say 3 days, others say 10 days. People need money to buy essentials. In my personal view, I hope it doesn’t happen like that.

10-12-2023

I just had a meeting with two friends who work within the payment program.

Summary:

1- Nothing is left in the hands of the managers.

2- Everything is now in the payment phase through authorized banks.

3- Since yesterday, very important changes and adaptations have been made to make everything more precise, faster and safer.

4- All the escrow accounts of all the people who will receive have already been opened.

These are accounts that no administrator has access to.

Only the account holder will be able to access it.

5- An Escrow account is as if each person owned a private bank, since it works as a financial platform. (People usually don’t know what this is like yet and will need to learn.

However, it is simple and easy and you can do it using your cell phone or computer at home.

6- Now the phase of sending the CALLS to all the people called planned or contributed will begin.

This will be done via email and SMS.

This is an appointment for the person to appear at a specific bank branch to speak with the manager.

There he will sign contracts, receive a credit card and can download a certain amount to his usual account for immediate use in a conventional way.

Finally, you will receive all the instructions on what you can or cannot do with your securities.

7- All this will happen from now on.

8- But everything will be done in the utmost secrecy, if the person starts to talk, to tell, especially through social networks, whoever it is, their values ​​will be blocked with no possibility of reversing the process.

For now, that’s basically it. In reality, everything is published, the World Bank codes are received and entered into the system.

So we can say IT’S REALLY OVER!!!

Now it’s just a matter of a little more patience and that’s it.

By: Pedro S. Cru.

Now you can open your champagne, change your life drastically, and prepare to help your neighbor.

JUST REMEMBER THAT ALL THIS IS NOT BUSINESS, *IT IS A 100% HUMANITARIAN PROJECT!*

Let’s go!

The government is spending 133 trillion dinars from the current year’s budget and revealing the status of employees’ salaries for the new year, 18 DEC

  The government is spending 133 trillion dinars from the current year’s budget and revealing the status of employees’ salaries for the new year

Member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Mustafa Al-Karawi, said in a press interview that “delaying the budget releases does not affect employees’ salaries,” indicating that “salaries have been fully secured.”

Al-Karaawi added, “About 130 trillion Iraqi dinars were spent out of the total budget amounting to 199 trillion dinars.”

A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee pointed out that “delayed projects are among the government’s obligations, and will be proceeded with after disbursing all investment budget allocations.”

For his part, economic affairs specialist Safwan Qusay said in a press interview, “The cessation of oil exports in the Kurdistan region affected Iraqi revenues, but the rise in oil prices in recent months made up for the shortfall.”

Qusay added, “The monthly spending rate is approximately seven trillion dinars, while the budget was built on the basis of 15 trillion dinars, meaning there is an excess in spending.”

The economic affairs specialist pointed out that “the money spent is 80% of the operating budget, and the financial abundance is rotated, given that the budget is for three years.”

Earlier, the Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed that entering the new year 2024 will not stop the disbursement of funds from the tripartite budget, given that it was approved for three years, while indicating that the committee is awaiting schedules from the government related to spending for the new year.

The head of the committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, said in a statement to the official agency, last week, that " The committee approved a tripartite government budget, and there is no interruption to spending and disbursement, given that the approved budget is for (3) years to ensure the continuation of spending, contracting, and the continuity of the government’s work throughout its years without faltering, as happened in the past, which led to the budget being delayed for more than 6 months.

He added, “With regard to the 2024 budget, the committee is communicating with the government while awaiting its schedules, and it is possible to complete the issue as soon as possible with the aim of sending it to the House of Representatives to vote on it.”   link

"RV UPDATE" BY MILITIAMAN, 17 DEC

 Militia Man 

 Article:  "A STATEMENT ISSUED BY THE IRAQ ECONOMIC CONTACT GROUP OF THE GROUP OF SEVEN COUNTRIES, THE EUROPEAN UNION, AND THE WORLD BANK"  This data supports all that we have been seeing where Iraq is going international. It is coming out strong and to the point from the horse's mouths. For those that doubt it still.. Good luck.

  We had some problems with the embassy recently...They put the army out from the 12th, a couple days back, through the 20th.  So you kind of go, wow.  They're really focusing in on the 20th.  Again, they are telling us a story.   Whether that is an indicator or not it's going to be determined. Don't think that we're telling you it's going down on the 20th because that's not what we said and that's not what I'm telling you.  But it's fascinating stuff...

  Romanowski  [US Ambassador to Iraq]  had her G7 meeting...She's taken photo op with the G7 supporting the reforms of Iraq.  That's powerful stuff.  

Article quote:  "...during the coming year the Iraq economic contact group will further cooperation to support the development of the economic and financial sector in Iraq including prime minister Al-Sudani's policies to enhance the value of the dinar...This is a clear announcement of the new policies regarding the dinar during the transitional period..."  That's a drop the mic you guys.  Phenomenal...In other words if you're going to enhance the value of the dinar something is going to change.

Article  "STATEMENT OF THE IRAQ ECONOMIC CONTACT GROUP OF THE G7, EUROPEAN UNION AND WORLD BANK"  This is the road map they have been using to show the world their intentions.

 They have every intention to see Iraq succeed and get back into the international arena and into her rightful place in the international financial system! We can see by the evidence over the last few months that support they are getting down to the wire...

 Iraq is presenting that they're going international and they have been talking about it for a long period of time.


  They've actually doing it for a long period of time and they're coming to fruition to where they've publicly told us they were going to start spending money and that could be as soon as around the 20th.  Then you have the end of the year dinar only.  They have the taxation in dinar on the same time frame.   These little bits and pieces they feed us, their time frames, we put it together...and we'll see how they roll out in the coming days.   It's a phenomenal process...

The dollar is going away between now and the 20th for commercial purposes.  It will not be used as of the same data for taxation in the country... Will they still be able to buy dollars to travel. ..?  Yes.  Will they be able to use the dollar for transactions in country for commercial purposes?  Answer, No.  Will they be able to use any other currency other than the dinar for commercial purposes within the country as of January 1, 2024 ...the answer is no...  Standby for this to get really exciting because everything we're seeing is telling me that we've never been here before...

  Article:   "Samsung: Iraq represents the most prominent market in the Middle East"  The Iraqi markets are going to explode. Samsung is going to be there all along the way. They will not be alone be sure. Having an early start is a big deal...Iraq's private sector is going to be on fire.

Al Sudani has established  a "Unique private sector development council..." ...Giving credibility to the private sector is getting ready to explode.  It's going to be phenomenal.  

 If the Finance Minister needs to work to the end of the year to make sure that everything's sorted and ready to go and do it right and do it properly so the Iraqi citizens get what they deserve which is purchasing power.  I think it's a phenomenal situation.  I think everybody can clearly see...they're doing it and it's coming to fruition...
