With pro-Mubarak demonstrators riding around on camels whipping anti-government protesters and making matters on the ground way worse, the U.S. State Department is urgently warning Americans in Egypt to get their asses to the Cairo airport if they want to fly out because “additional U.S. government flights after Thursday are unlikely.”
However, travelers should read the fine print before boarding, this evacuation is by no means complimentary.
According to the State Department:
U.S. citizens requesting evacuation must sign paperwork promising to reimburse the U.S. Government for flight costs at a later date. Exact flight costs are not yet available, but will be comparable to a one-way commercial flight from Egypt to the safe haven location on the date of travel.
The good news: At least it’s on credit. The bad news: NBC’s Brian Williams reported that price to be around $1700.
Sure, if you’re booking through U.S. carriers as the State Department is required to do by federal law. However, there may be better options. Try Orbitz for example. And since you’re in a place looking at cool old stuff, might as well fly to another place with cool old stuff… like Athens. It’s also listed as a “safe haven location.” One quick search on Orbitz for a Friday departure yielded a bunch of cheap one-way flights, but none of them were on U.S. carriers.
There wasn’t one American-owned airline in the results, here’s the first 13 cheapest.
Expedia offered similar results.
As for the chartered flights, U.S. citizens can also forget about bringing pets. They’re going to have to sit out the revolution.
Here’s the full dispatch that citizens receive when contacting the State Department’s Egypt Task Force via email:
Thank you for contacting the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Embassy in Cairo regarding the welfare of a U.S. Citizen in Egypt.
In case we have any questions, please ensure that we have your full name and contact information (day, evening, and mobile phone numbers; email address, etc.).
So that we may properly pursue your inquiry, we will need informationabout the person in Egypt who may need assistance. For each person, please be sure you sent us his/her:
* Full Name
* Date of Birth
* Place of Birth
* As much information as possible regarding you/his/her physical
location (address, hotel name, etc.) and contact information (home
phone, cell phone, email address, etc.) within Egypt.Please send us any other information you feel is important for us to know, such as any pre-existing medical conditions, or whether you oryour loved one is either elderly or a child in Egypt without his/her
parent(s).NOTE: The U.S. Embassy advises U.S. citizens in Egypt that we plan to continue evacuation efforts on Thursday, February 3 and is assessing the need to continue flights after that, in light of the availability of commercial flights and decreased demand for U.S. government evacuation flights. Additional U.S. government flights after Thursday are unlikely.
All remaining U.S. citizens who wish to depart Egypt on a U.S. government flight and who are able to do so should proceed to Cairo International Airport Terminal 4 (the Hajj Terminal) as soon as possible after the morning end of the curfew on February 3. There are no plans for U.S. government chartered evacuation flights from other airports. Do not wait for a call from the U.S. Embassy. Further delay is not advisable.
On February 1, the Department of State ordered the departure of all non-emergency U.S. government personnel and family members from Egypt. The U.S. Department of State continues to recommend that U.S. citizens avoid travel to Egypt at this time. U.S. citizens should consider leaving Egypt as soon as they can safely do so, due to ongoing political and social unrest. Large-scale demonstrations with the potential for violence continue in several areas of Cairo, Alexandria, and other parts of the country, and rail and road travel has been disrupted between cities, and between city centers and airports. Disruptions in communications, including internet service, also continue. The Government of Egypt may also disrupt mobile phone service during future demonstrations. The Government of Egypt modified the curfew times and locations; now 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. throughout Egypt until further notice. U.S. citizens should obey curfew orders and remain indoors during curfew hours.
*U.S. citizens currently in Egypt should monitor international and local media to stay abreast of announcements from the embassy. Due to the fluid nature of the situation and the volume of phone calls to the embassy, U.S. citizens should not wait for a reply from the embassy or the Department of State before traveling to the nearest airport. Cairo airport is open and operating, but flights may be delayed or cancelled, and transport to the airport is disrupted, due to the protests. Travelers should remain in contact with their airlines or tour operators concerning flight schedules, and arrange to arrive at the airport well before curfew hours.
The U.S. Department of State is making arrangements to provide charter air transportation to safe haven locations in Europe of U.S. citizens and eligible dependents who wish to depart Egypt. U.S. citizens requesting evacuation must sign paperwork promising to reimburse the U.S. Government for flight costs at a later date. Exact flight costs are not yet available, but will be comparable to a one-way commercial flight from Egypt to the safe haven location on the date of travel. U.S. citizens who travel on U.S. Government-arranged transport will be expected to make their own onward travel plans from the safe haven location; currently: Larnaca, Cyprus; Istanbul, Turkey; Frankfurt, Germany; and Athens, Greece. Flights to evacuation points began departing Cairo on Monday, January 31. There will be a limited number of seats available on future evacuation flights. Priority will be given to persons with medical emergencies or severe medical conditions.
*U.S. citizens with a valid passport wishing to depart from Cairo may proceed to the Hajj Terminal 4 of the airport after curfew is lifted. For U.S. citizens attempting to depart via Alexandria, airports are all open and there are commercial flights available to U.S. citizens. If traveling from Luxor, Alexandria, or Aswan airport, be sure to have a confirmed ticket and know the terminal you need before traveling to the airport. There are two operational airports in Alexandria:
Primary airport: Borg El Arab – two terminals:
-One newer where commercial flights are departing.
-Older terminal where chartered flights are departing and some
commercial flights.
Secondary airport: El Nouzha – older, under reconstruction
Passengers must have a ticket in hand, or arrange to purchase a ticket via cell phone or internet. Tickets are NOT being sold at the airport.*Immediate family members (spouses and children) who are not U.S. citizens must be documented for entry into the safe haven country and/or the United States, if that is their final destination. Travelers who are not U.S. citizens but are accompanying a U.S. citizen immediate family member (child, spouse, parent of minor child) should have a valid passport. Travelers should bring valid travel documents and any necessary medications. Each traveler may bring one suitcase (not more than 44lbs) and a small personal carry-on item. U.S. citizens seeking evacuation should be prepared for a substantial wait at the airport. Travelers are advised to bring food, water, diapers and other necessary
toiletries with them to the airport.*In the event of demonstrations, U.S. citizens in Egypt should remain in their residences or hotels until the demonstrations subside. Security forces may block off the area around the U.S. Embassy during demonstrations, and U.S. citizens should not attempt to come to the U.S. Embassy or the Tahrir Square area during that time.
Demonstrations have degenerated on several occasions into violent clashes between police and protesters, resulting in injuries and extensive property damage. While demonstrations have not been directed toward Westerners, U.S. citizens are urged to remain alert to local security developments and to be vigilant regarding their personal security. The U.S. Department of State strongly urges U.S. citizens to avoid all demonstrations, as even peaceful ones can quickly become unruly and a foreigner could become a target of harassment or worse. If caught unexpectedly near a demonstration, U.S. citizens should obey instructions from police and leave the area as quickly as possible. U.S. citizens resident in Egypt should monitor local news broadcasts and U.S. citizen visitors should ask tour guides and hotel officials about any planned demonstrations in the locations they plan to visit. U.S. citizens should carry identification and a cell phone that works in Egypt.
I've got a MacBook with a Core 2 Duo CPU. I think it's about 18 months old. It took about 2 hours for it to burn a DVD I created in iDVD. Subsequent copies could be made from the original in about 20 minutes each. I recently had to digitize some analog tapes and those were recorded to my laptop in real time, so an hour of video took an hour just to get into the laptop. If you need to overlay a logo/watermark of some sort or do any basic editing, add more time still.
If they're going to need to trim the video, add a fade in and fade out, do any custom menus, try and clean up the audio, etc., it will take even longer. If they're using some sort of standalone DVD duplicator (your "dubbing" machine) to do this, then this is also dependent on the speed of that. If they have a really old model that only burns at 4x, that will take six times longer than a model than burns at 24x.
You really need to figure out what they're doing ("making DVDs" isn't concise) and the hardware they're doing it with ("good Macs" isn't helpful either).

RuneScape is a very popular fantasy MMORPG that can be played right from your browser. No installation required. This free to play MMO is filled with fun and excitement but like most all video games, you can enhance your experience with in-game money that can be used to buy new items and upgrade your character.
Below are 5 tips for making money with RuneScape so you can enhance your gameplay:
1. Sell Feathers- Players below level 30 can kill chickens and collect the feathers. After you have a good collection of feathers, take them to sell for gold. Free to play members can get the best price by going to "World One" and selling them at a place located east of the West Bank in Varrock. Pay to play members should go to the north of the East Falador Bank for the best price.
2. Duel for Gold- If you're good at it, you can make money dueling. However, if you're really not that good, you may want to practice before trying to win gold this way or you could lose what you already have.
3. Selling Goods- There are several options available when you want to sell goods for a profit. You can buy food and other items that are plentiful in one area and take them to another location where they're rare and sell them for a higher price. You can sell items and other commodities to other players who are willing to pay a higher price for something they really want. The main thing that you need to do if you plan to sell goods is to know the current market prices. This way, you can stay within the going rate while still making a profit.
4. Play Treasure Hunting- This is a mini-game that is available for members. The game consists of three levels each of which offers items worth a lot of gold. Not only is the game fun to play but it can be very profitable.
5. Improve Your Skills- Your skills play a big role in how much money you can earn in the game. As you move up in levels you'll be able to earn more money for your skills. The three skills considered to make the most money in the game are fishing, woodcutting and mining. The better you are at these skills, the more you can make.
RuneScape is an exciting browser MMO and the more money you make, the more enjoyable it can be. Use these 5 tips for making money to enhance your game and get the most from this extraordinary MMO.
