Transit visa question:
Parents flying back to India from US via Germany (Atlanta-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

What is better hertz or Avis loyalty program? I have been on hertz (president circle status due to united status) and collected points a few free rental days now.

I’m loyal to delta, but I’m moving to a city where American is the main hub and Delta has practically no non-stop flights to/from there. It’s time for me to open a new credit card, so I was considering the Citi/American one. Any thoughts?
