      lol lol lol

      Couldnt stop laughing after looking at the comments. Though the initial post was/is great but old, people seem to be so ignorant of the essence of the post. I have no doubt that all those posts (asking for PNR status) are from well educated and intelligent(?) people. Wake up people!!!
