I have been a flight attendant for over 10 years, currently based in the middle east. We have free tickets to fly to any of our airline's destinations.
I have been on frequent close visits to NYC this past year.
- Jan 2023 - 5 days for leisure
- Feb 2023 - 8 days, bday celebration
- Apr 2023 - 10 days visiting a relative
- July 2023 - 5 days leisure
- Sept 2023 - 12 days visiting a relative
- Nov 2023 - 2 days for thanksgiving
6 visits total. These travel/stay dates are usually my "days off" from flying/work every month and I do travel to other countries in between as well.
Recent entries to the US areas follows:
- Jan 2024 - 10 days, my annual vacation from work.
- March 2024 - 10 days visiting friends, relative, leisure, shopping
- April 11 - 4 days, close friends birthday celebration.
The CBP officer noticed the amount of NYC entry stamps I have on my passport and commented "something's going on here" but he is aware that I am flight crew and it's my "days off" and he let me in.
I am very anxious to be travelling to the US again because of his comment. When is the safest date or month I should be travelling to the US to visit my friends or relatives again?
I do know I should wait it out. But I am planning to take my dad on a trip to NYC to visit relatives and also celebrate the fact that I've been flying/a flight attendant for 11 years now.
