I'm planning to book this route for my parents mid-august. They are connecting from Bangalore. On AirIndia website, it says AI-191 will fly out from BOM at 0030 hrs and that it is a non-stop flight.

However flightradar shows that this flight typically takes off from BOM around 9pm. This is a good 3 hours before the scheduled departure. Anyone who recently took this flight - can you confirm what was the actual timing? I don't want to book my parents on this flight if the flight timings are themselves unclear.

Or is there a change in overall schedule right now with the situation in Middle East? In that case, could AirIndia decide to continue the current schedule (i.e., departure at 930pm from BOM)?

I got my L1B in 2023 as a blanket petition. Interview went well, I reached the US. Now in the US, I've got my L1 extension approved. I received both I-129S and I-129.

To schedule my visa interview, is my petition now considered as Blanket or not? Attorney said they filed my extension on the basis of the company's blanket petition but won't give me a straight answer on whether I should schedule my appointment as a blanket or individual.

Anyone else who was/is in a similar boat? Is there any documentation or some policy that I can refer to get clarity for my case?
