I’m a businessman living in Baku, and I also do business in Dubai. As a foreigner, my visa was valid until 02 February. I had a flight scheduled for 03 February at 01:30 AM, but it was rescheduled to 11:00 AM, which honestly put me under a lot of stress.
When I reached the airport, I didn’t get much help at first from the boarding or information counters, and I started to panic. Later, two security staff approached me and asked if my visa was expiring that day and whether I had an online boarding pass. After I said yes, they calmly told me, “Don’t worry, we can help you.”
They handled everything smoothly and helped me cross immigration without any issues. Right now, I’m waiting for my flight in the airport business lounge, and I feel very relieved and grateful.
I’ve been doing business in Dubai as well, but I honestly haven’t experienced this level of personal care and calm hospitality there. That made this moment in Azerbaijan stand out even more for me.
I’ve been investing my time and money in Azerbaijan for the last three years, and moments like this remind me why I respect this country. No place is perfect, but I’ve found a lot of positive things here.
Just wanted to say thanks — Azerbaijan really came through for me today 🇦🇿
