Hi all, I need some advice again, I need to go to Boston in late October and have to stop over in Dubai on the way there. I am trying to find the cheapest way to fly PER-DBX-JFK and back to PER (I don't care which way I get home but I need to stop over in Dubai on the way there). Also flying...

I am not a pilot but I would have thought it wasn't that hard to find the actual airport? This fortunately turned out ok, but I imagine the outcome could have been a disaster :shock: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,18661747%255E29677,00.html IT was Ryanair...
