Indians are just waking up after TRVMP nuked the H1B program. Want to keep them in India? Clog the flight reservation systems!
https://www.google.com/travel/flightsThe 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 TOILETThe 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>Repeattl;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 it too!>Spread the word
