European asked:


Every other year I fly from the D.C area to Vilnius, Lithuaia to vist family. We fly June or in July- the most expensive time to fly transatlantic.

Would it be better for me to book for example since there are no direct flights to Vilnius, a flight to Copenhagen, and then seperately a flight from Copenhagen to Vilnius.
Instead of buying them together.

Its just when you buy together the airline will help you if you miss your flight due to a delay or something. But if you book seperate they most likely won’t help you, correct?

Brett Sadowski asked:


I am a USNA grad and going into medical school this year. I am trying to get more information about becoming a flight surgeon and want to know how it effects my service obligation. I know that my USNA time make me owe 5 years and my HPSP time I will owe an additional 4. Residency won’t count, but does the training I receive to become a flight surgeon add to my service obligation? Thanks for your help.
