Sorry for the rather late reply. i have been resting.

I took Turkish airlines; night flight. It was about 172k. Stopped over at Istanbul then immediately took a connecting flight straight to Hamburg. Then took a train straight to the city centre then a bus to my apartment. The flight was awesome. Ate everything on offer (No dulling; no go do first time gentle boy ooo. Your money covers everything)

Turkish airline allows 2pcs of 23kg. I took a very big bus which i think was bigger than 46kg; but i was advised by the custom official at MMA to split it into two. So, i think its advisable you get two bags too. Make sure you package your stuff very well, particularly your foodstuffs. Wrap them well in used newspaper and cello-tape each differently. Liquids arent allowed in the plane so you have to do a very tight packing. The immigration officers detected my body cream and it was seized. Do a tight packing, i repeat and be confident when you get to MMA. Those custom pple would always ask you what you have in your bag. Be free to explain.

I wasn't really queried. Once they heard i am going for a research and i am also a government employee...it was smooth sailing.

Get as much as would sustain you for few weeks before you settle down. As for me, what i have here might take me for a whole month. Rice, beans, garri, noodles, spag, even ogbono...lol

I hope this helps. Any more question? feel free to ask. The Hamburg Man is here for you. lol

lol..I dunno oh, but boys will have to look for something cheaper oh..
thought I saw 120 something earlier this month when I checked flight prices to Hamburg, although the day of departure I keyed in was sometime in September. But with you having to pay 170+, I guess you booked like a week or two before departure? and it seems one really has to book the flight thingy way ahead of time.

Funny enough i booked a week before departure but had to rebook and make payment 2 days to go. I kept monitoring the price but it didnt change much. The lowest within that period was 169k. you can do a thorough search for a cheaper flight. never mind the stop overs. The dont matter, you will definitely arrive here as scheduled.

Meanwhile, we are are now in summer big time. flights are much expensive this period. It will be cheaper in September - That's almost winter, i guess.
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by Nobody: 2:39pm On Jul 18, 2015
172 is for return ticket i guess. another cheap flight is euthopian arlian with 2 hours stop over at addis ababa. by 5 am one is alreay in frankfurt. one way is around 123k while roundtrip is btw 170 n 180k

You see the link just above you and you are still asking for them to send it to your mail
With such an attitude, I doubt if you will even be successful when you take the real test.

i think what you are asking is if the embassy will verify the statement of account you submit? well the embassy will only verify if what you submitted is genuine from the bank audit department, and will not ask the amount since you have submitted your statement . however some embassies do not have time for that. but bro i will advise you to be honest if you submit fake statement and you caught na barn be that.

please do u know the embassies that verify and the ones that dont? I know for certain that US does not verify an account statement submitted at their embassy. Which other embassies do not?

why did u get a return ticket when one way could have been cheaper?
Or are you returning after the 3 month program?

Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by peruziii: 10:06pm On Jul 18, 2015
you are correct usa issues visa base on credibility interview and do not care about document as they know document can be forge. so the consular uses their discretion. but uk and most schengen countries verifies. uk does more intense verification as they have a verification unit in their embassy which work is to verify document .

Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by peruziii: 10:16pm On Jul 18, 2015
bros then you do not have a problem you can redraw, as they will only verify the authenticity of your document . they have no business checking your balance even the bank will not tell them as that is confidential. they will only verify the genuity of what you submitted hope this has finally answered your question?
