]]> Comment on My American Adventures at O’Hare Airport by andytsin http://ukrainianguide.com/my-american-adventures-at-ohare-airport/#comment-1122 andytsin Fri, 15 Sep 2006 18:08:57 +0000 http://ukrainianguide.com/my-american-adventures-at-ohare-airport/#comment-1122 Hi Katya, Sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience with the American immigration officers. Every time I happen to travel to Europe I have to undergo the same type of scrutiny at the airports. But I think one of my worst encounters with airport security officers was in Moscow’s Sheremetevo where I was arrested and interrogated on the basis of some made-up law about the duration of stay in Russia. In anyway, my American friend and I were really freaked out about missing our plane. Once the officer notice two American visas in my Ukrainian passport, he looked at me with contempt and roared mockingly: “Ohh, hahol!” Apparently we ended up paying $100 each so they could let us get on board of our plane to Kiev. I am pretty sure those gentlemen went out afterwards to have a couple of drinks at our expense as neither of us received any legal proof that could officially certify that we paid the fine. On another note, are you originally from Brody, Ukraine? Your name sounds very familiar. I think I had a classmate named Katya Pilipiuk. We attended “Serednia Shkola # 1” in Brody. Best, Andriy Tsintsiruk Hi Katya,
