What is your plan for Landing? Can we do anything to speed up the landing process? I gave a hard thought and decided that flagpole is the only option. Please let me know your thoughts.

Yes based on what I have read on this forum, flagpoling is the fastest but the issue is with where it will be done. I read some of borders are very busy and turn people away after they reach their daily quota. Where are u located?
