Well i have a differnet view all togeather.

may be some one of you have noticed these days that dates in Dubai are
available for september - that is the next month.

so by this methord - those who have just reserved the seat , will have it
reserved after three months.

and those who actually want to go in the lab - can just get a seat with in a
month or two - submit the money and stick to it - no more bluffing....

so you will reserve the seat with in three month's Only if you really are
ready.

so best of luck guyz

seats are coming ur way.
