What happen if your airline switch a layover to a coutry that you are banned from?
What happen if your airline switch a layover to a coutry that you are banned from?
I suppose you'd have to stay on the plane.
You would have an uncomfortable lay over.
Be switched to some other compination of flights
Given a refund and you make a new booking.by some other route.
If the Airline or lay over places knows you are banned you would be denied boarding for the first flight and either get some other arrangement, have your tickets cancelled and maybe they issue you a refund.
DO NOT expect a free hotel and meals while you wait.
It's very unlikely to happen international agreements for lay overs are arranged moths if not years in advance.
While you are at an airport you have not officially entered a country until you go through customs and leave the airport. So I can't see why it would be an issue to transit through there. They may ask you for proof that you are just meeting a connecting flight. It also depends on why you were banned.
Well, I'd love to know why you're banned from a country!
Sounds like a good conversation for a bar
In most countries, you stay in the international transit area of the airport, which means that you have not technically entered the country. Only if you go through Immigration are you in the country. So you shouldn't have a problem unless your layover is in one of those places where everyone has to go through Immigration upon arrival.
Since you do not go through immigration or leave the airport on layovers its no problem
Interesting that you could be banned from a country, but realistically you should check if the routing can be altered, as even though technically unto you go through customs and immigration you aren't in the country officially, there could be issue with just being in transit.
Not sure It would be worth the risk!
- Why do so many bad things happen on United Airlines? Whenever something bad happens on an airline, its almost always on United. Like today, when some woman fat-shamed her seatmates. United airlines has also kicked many autistic passengers of planes because they were "disruptive". Why is United Airlines like this? This doesn't happen as much on American Airlines.
- If I switch flights, will I be exempted from the US ban for laptops? So what if I go from Dubai International airport(Banned) to France international airport(Not Banned) and then from there to the US. Will I be allowed to have my laptop with me?
- Did you bring dildo in your checked baggage when you travel internationally before? What's your story in the airport? I know this is some sort of a weird and personal question, but I'm wondering if I can bring 7 inch dildo. Lol! Please don't judge? I just wanted to know if this would cause someone to ask me to open my luggage. I'm travelling to Singapore and US
- Is it normal to be nervous when you are about to go on your first flight on a commercial airline by yourself? I've flown several times but Wednesday will be the first time I will have flown by myself. I'm a bit nervous. Not about the actual flying but just flying alone. I'm trying to look at it as adventure.
