<DIV><STRONG>Question:<BR></STRONG>Assuming that I may Halachically observe one
day for Shavuot in Israel , I have the following issue. If I fly on El AL on the
second day Shavuot I would arrive in New York (assuming they are on
schedule...which knowing my mazal they probably will be even though they rarely
are) at 8:35. The<BR>Zemanim calendars all say that Yom Tov Sheini shel Goluyos
ends at 9:08.<BR>May I travel even though I might arrive 32 minutes begfore the
end of Chag in the USA (using a 42 minute calendar). What do I have to do if I
may do<BR>this? Assuming I cannot stay on the plane for that long can I get off
and just stay at the end of the walkway?<BR><BR><B>Answer:</B><BR>Since you are
not Chayyav with the second day of Yom Tov you should try and make sure you are
not seen traveling in the states. Therefore, you should get off the plane and
wait at the end of the walkway (or at least not leave the airport) until the end
of Yom Tov there.<BR><BR>Rabbi Yitzchak Grinblat</DIV>

class=118214712-05062008>Question - I assume this is based on the Chacham Tzvi
which iirc was based on the makom being gorem so ben C"L doesn't observe 2nd day
in aretz but does that also mean that you're kovea your status at the beginning
of the day for the whole day so shinui makom makes no difference (except in
mazal :-)?<BR><BR>KT J</SPAN></FONT></STRONG></DIV>
