The meting was quite general. There was some advice shared about what should and shouldn't be done when it comes to travelling back home to America. We paid the ticket tax, which I STILL don't understand how or why that works the way it does. Our ticket tax is only 38 Riyals, I heard some nationalities have to py up to 900 Riyals, I believe it was Brazilian students that had to pay it.

Note: Us students of the Islamic University of Madinah, don't have to pay for our personal airfare back home for the summer break. Before the summer break starts, we fill out our destination information, like what airports we have to go through, and we pay some tax on the ticket based by country, and voila! Free ticket paid by the government ofthe Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Just another feat from their MANY feats, helping the Muslim Ummah.

P.S. If you know how the ticket tax thing works, leave me a comment on this post. Shukran
