you're welcome.......it will just expedite the US Embassy to process you a new one if you should lose yours.......and believe me they need expediting......if they have to go back to the US and look you up and find the numbers, yada, yada, yada.....you'll be there until your daughters' bar mitzbahs.....this way they have everything in front of them and can quickly process you.........carry one with you as you travel about the city and one in your suitcase and one in your briefcase.........put your passport in the safe if they have one in the room...........I'm so excited for you.......MBear.......

Thanks expatgirl. That is a great idea. I just spoke to the travel agent to set up my trip. Once my flight is approved my our finance director I will register on that site.

Out of all places in the world, the one you should not be traveling to or from on Shabat is definitely Israel, oy vey.
Hope I'm mistaken with the time.

No you are not mistaken Charlie. Unfortunately that is when the office needed me there. Our meetings start Sunday so in order to not miss much work here (which of course is what the company in the US is concerned about) they need me to travel Fri-Sat.

Do you really think that El Al would depart or land on Shabbat?....

I am not flying El Al. My flight is on continental. They do not care about the Sabbath.
