    This think such thing can happen as it happened with me once i took a flight first class from Newyork to Sydney but i had a stopover in Tokyo i stayed in Tokyo for two days due to some health issue then i went to Seoul from there i took a flight to London Paris then i took a train to Spain then from there i flew to Brazil from there to Peru and took flight to Mexico then i came to Nairobi. and finally, from there i took flight to Mangalore so it took me some time though i was at the airport and in the flight most of the time.

    Really confusing episode. I think he is a story creator. First of all once he received the boarding pass via Muscat or Dubai or anywhere there is record with the airline people. They will look for him every where inside airport before departure. It is airlines responsibility after issuing boarding pass. Once it happened with me.i boarded a flight from Kuwait to Bangalore via srilanka. it was late from Kuwait so the flight went change from Colombo to Bangalore a small one. All boarding completed and passengers sitting. The flight was waiting from 30 mins for only 4 passengers from Kuwait flight to Bangalore .here now a days he cannot fool anyone.eventho He is multilingual it is easy to track him through mobile phone location and CCTV footage. He himself will become fool if he tries to fool his family

    it is very simple to trace if the person had boarded the flight or no by flight manifest, which is been carried by the capt of the operating flight and is a mandatory document for all the airline to receive before closing of the door and to obtain clearance for departure

    Looks like pre-planned. Asking wife to buy a ticket is to confuse her. He was gone in the first flight itself. She will not get him anymore. But she can peruse with airport authorities to see which way he went. Even if they find him, he may say that he left with his own will.

    I don’t agree with this. There are so Many flights to india or mangalore from Kuwait like air India via Mumbai, sundays air India express and daily indigo. Why he go to muscat and then to Dubai from muscat?? Even from oman. There are flights to all part of India.Also how asking money from wife to buy tickets. Why not ask his friends in kuwait if he really left t muscat from Kuwait. Ask his kuwait company. . Something really fishy

    I too wonder what made him travel via Muscat or Dubai? Oman Air, Emirates, Fly Dubai and Air Arabia fly from Kuwait via Muscat and Dubai. Other flights like Air India, Kuwait Airways, Jazeera, Indigo, etc. fly direct to India. Among these Jazeera offers cheaper fares. I don’t think the difference in fares made him take the unusual route.

    Just register a police complaint at oman airport on line and one police complaint at mangalore airport , they will find out in one day weather he has arrived in mangalore or not.

    Very suspicious case.Instead of asking here and there first ask the airline if he ever boarded a plane.When that is sure ,then one can inquire in CCTV camera in Airport .Here something is gone wrong.Didnt he have enough money to buy ticket instead of asking wife to buy ?Pray he is safe and in good health.Any flight was cancelled?Or anyone tried to lcokout him because of any gold or money?When he has called home then he has a mobile with him.Cant someone locate or so ?
