https://www.google.com/travel/flights Indians are just waking up after the H1B news. Want to keep them in India? Clog the flight reservation system! The setup: >Jeets have <24 hours to re-enter the US, otherwise must pay $100k H1B fee >Tens of thousands of Jeets abroad are now scrambling to get last-second flights back to the US. >The solution? Operation CLOG THE TOILET The plan: >Go on Google Flights, search common India-US flights (e.g. Mumbai to San Francisco) >Initiate the checkout process. >Most airlines will hold your tickets for 15 minutes during the checkout, thus locking out Jeets >Don't checkout. Leave window open for full 15 minutes >Repeat tl;dr Open common India-US flights, initiate checkout holds, repeat. If enough autists do this, the whole flight reservation system will get clogged and H1B Jeets will be stuck in India. Pro tips: >Focus on highest traffic India-US flights (see second post for list) >Open multiple tabs at once for different flights combinations and ticket levels. Multitask, there is no limit on the number of checkout tabs open at once. >Before alt-tabbing, go far enough through the checkout process ensure the tickets/seats are actually reserved. Different for each airline. >If programming orientated: write a script to automate the process. Share with fellow frens >Spread the word
