Recently, the Delta airline counters in NYC started asking when my return flight is to the US. Strange as I was asked 2 out of 2 when I flew internationally mid this year. Anyone knows why they started asking the 'return flight date'?

Because countries don’t want you overstaying your tourist visa, and immigration officers can ask for a return flight for proof you will not overstay. If you are denied entry into the country, the airline is on the hook to return you to your destination. This is them doing a CYA. Very normal if you’ve flown to Japan, Canada or other similar countries that have strict immigration policies

last year was not like this. flew to the same countries so it was strange for me. your comment make sense though

Is your passport expiring in the next year or so? Most countries don't like admitting travelers with expiration dates in the near future.

Has nothing to do with passport expiry as Timatic already processes travel documents against a countries passport/visa policies when doing a docs check.

If you ever want to watch it in action, the shows “Border Security” are fascinating

The Swedish one is fantastic. The first season is on Max.
