Transit visa question:
Parents flying back to India from US via Germany (ATL-Frankfurt-Munich-Delhi), all on one PNR. They have a valid US visa. Given the 2 stops in Germany, would they need a transit visa?

Any clue who can answer this question with certainty? Airport? Airline?

TIA

They WILL NEED a visa. I did a similar travel. 🇺🇸 —> Frankfurt —> Munich —> Istanbul. I almost wasn’t let through because I lacked Schengen visa, without which I could not enter 🇩🇪. You cannot catch the Frankfurt —> Munich domestic leg without crossing border control and entering 🇩🇪. So they will need a visa

Correct, THEY WILL need a transit visa. I had a similar route and had to reach out to Lufthansa to change it.

Can’t have two stops without transit visa. Unless they don’t leave the plane

Don’t agree. You need a transit visa only if you exit airport, not if you are within the international transfer terminals. That being said, since OPs parents have two domestic transfers in Germany, they might need a transit visa.

Unless they’re planning to leave the airport during the layovers, a transit visa would not be required despite the multiple layovers

If you don’t leave airport and is booked on same airline you are good.

Need a transit visa else you won’t be allowed onto the Munich connection

Thanks all! Looks like even a transit visa won't do, would need a Schengen visitor visa.

Thoughts on the proposed JetBlue -Spirit Merger?

I used to be a big fan of Jetblue(nyc based), but lately I feel like the airline is just as bad as the low cost ones. Old aircrafts, canceled and delayed flights. I can see why it’s important for JetBlue to have this merger for their relevance in this field.
