PROBLEM: Looking at website of Guyanese Embassy in Brasilia, Brazil I'm not sure if they issue visas to foreigners:


  We advise that Brazilians do not need a tourism visa to get into Guyana (...) Fees: touristic visa - R$45,00 (...)


Since they mention that Brazilians don't need a touristic visa and yet publish its price, I understand they issue visas to foreigners. There's also a visa form in English available on their website.

On the other hand, according to Polish MFA (information available in Polish only)


  You can apply for a visa in Guyanese Embassy in Brussels or Caracas, Venezuela


My question is, as a citizen of Poland and resident of Brazil, can I get Guyanese visa in Brasilia, Brazil? 


SOLUTION: Can Polish citizens get a visa to Guyana in Brazil?

PROBLEM: This week some our suitcases that were delayed arrived. When inquiring with the delivery people, they told us that some restricted items were found by customs (not security although sometimes people confuse the two in my experience). Upon inspection, indeed a few things were missing, when I called the delivery company they confirmed the items but were not able to give any more information.

What happens to items removed from luggage? Are they kept somewhere? Can they be recovered?

This time it probably not worth the hassle but since this never happened to me after decades of flying into over 50 countries, I felt confused a frustrated at the lack of transparency. Specifically, they took out all AA batteries from inside items (a pair of Lithium AAs in a flashlight and NiMh AAs that were in some children toys), a bag of sweets and a box of chocolates. Nothing that we had not taken with us before. Oddly, a 9V Lithium battery was not removed from the only item that had a screw holding the battery compartment door closed.


SOLUTION: What happens to items removed from luggage?

PROBLEM: Today/yesterday, I had a multi-leg flight going IAD-CPH-AMS (Washington Dulles International Airport - Copenhagen Airport - amsterdam Airport Schiphol). I had a connection time of one hour in CPH, which is more than enough according to the CPH airport website. At IAD, technical issues delayed departure by more than an hour, causing me to miss my original connection. 

The airline rebooked me on a later flight to AMS (departure at 12:35 instead of 08:15), and when I went to the CPH transfer center to get my new boarding pass, they also gave me meal vouchers.

Did accepting the vouchers cause me to give up my rights to EU flight delay compensation (4+ hour delay on a transatlantic itinerary) because the vouchers are compensation too? 

UPDATE 27-9-2016:
The airline just told me that my EU 261/2004 claim has been approved, and that the full €600 compensation is on its way to me. So now we've got official confirmation that meal vouchers don't exclude you from the monetary compensation. 


SOLUTION:
Did I opt out of compensation by accepting meal vouchers?
