Max, I think the reason you've never had to do it is it was updated in December, not sure though.

Thanks for posting this, John.

how much was it? i think i remember jo saying there was a free one or something?

Not free but cheaper (£15 i think) if booked via flight centre or something, will get her to post link up here.

It looks as though it is $14 but I haven't got to the end the application yet.

The Travel Promotion Act of 2009

On March 4, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Travel Promotion Act (TPA) of 2009, Pub. L. No. 111-145. The Act directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish a fee for the use of the ESTA system, comprised of $10.00 for each VWP applicant receiving authorization to travel to the United States and $4.00 for the processing of the ESTA application. Applicants who are denied authorization to travel to the U.S. under the VWP will only be charged $4.00. The fee may only be paid by credit card. Applicants may save the application data and return to the application at a later date to enter the payment information. However, the application will not be submitted for processing until all payment information is completed.

Ok so does that mean it is $14? Didn't read it properly.

Travelex have a happy hour today from 11-12.30 so if anyone's thinking about changing up currency maybe check that out

yeah, $14.

Thanks H Bomb.

^^that sounds pretty cheap. 4 people in one suite?

If we can't get a room at the Holiday Inn, we are going to try ^ here.

It's the stuff of Bukowski paperbacks, no doubt. Read the reviews.. egad.

Johnny H Bomb, what did you do about health insurance in the end? (Vaguely remember you posting about it here or elsewhere but can't seem to find..)

Yeah, still looking into it.

I'm trying to work out if my work health insurance covers it, but otherwise I'm probably going with these guys:
