Flew back with EK from Manchester last week, and long discussion about my plans, as I was returning on and EVisa (retirement) and they wanted to understand why I don’t have a return flight…..when I explained that I have lived here for 6 years and returning to get a new retirement O visa they accepted it, but not sure she was convinced……

depends if there is a flag in their system for the destination country in question. They normally have to clear the flag by saying they have asked, or they cannot proceed to next stage of checkin
