To make these fares even more attractive one should go and exchange a big wad of US Dollars for local cash (assuming that the blackmarket rate in CAI or TIP differs from the official rate)and purchase the ticket for cash.

However, it may be problem to explain to some security staff in the US what you are doing with a ticket purchased in cash in these countries.

if you buy it outside Lybia , you can buy in every curency you want ! And the rate is changed by BSR ( at the moment 1LYD = 0,75 USD ) and not 1:1 !!!
