Question

I go to work by road for 70 km and then by helicopter for 45 min. Sometime I go for seven days (return date is confirmed) and sometimes my return date is not confirmed and depends on the completion of the job. Please tell if I have to pray full prayers?

Answer

You are a musaafir.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
