Please, when having a stop over to any European country, don't let your stop be more than 1. If you are having more than 1 stop in any European country, then you may require a transit visa, except if this rule has changed For instance, if you are taking air France, sometimes, they have 2 stops...Paris and Schipol(Amsterdam). For you to be eligible to fly on this ticket, you must have a transit visa because it has more than 1 European country stop over. Stick to the airlines listed for you earlier but ensure your stop in ANY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES ISN'T MORE THAN ONE. Try to avoid Ethiopian airline because I've heard series of cases where passengers (especially Nigerians) trying to board en route to Canada from Adisababa had issues because they were on visist visa. My friends and families have used Air France, Qatar, KLM and Lufthansa airlines perfectly well on visit visa without issues. Again, just stick to one "stop over" flight if you are using any European airline (KLM, Air France and Lufthansa) If you are using Qatar, avoid putting any liquid in your hand luggage, even to toothpaste because they might trash it in Doha before boarding to any of your destination. Put whatever liquid you have (no matter how small like your smallest finger) in your bigger bags(23kg luggage). Don't bring it on board with you. XYZJAZZY: 2 Likes 1 Share |

slimmsyyetty:Airfrance is my fav. They don't stop in 2 European countries on a trip. It all depends on the route you're taking. If you're to stop in AMS, then you're going with the KLM(Airfrance/KLM) Alliance but if Paris CDG is where you're going to have a stop, you'd go by Airfrance. Airfrance and KLM code-shares. You can't stop over in CDG and then proceed to AMS to have another stop. The routes are different and they follow it that way from the beginning of your trip. Whichever you choose, no transit visa is needed. |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by slimmsyyetty: 4:15pm On Jan 19 |
I hope the flight details in the picture below reveals more to you that it is possible to have a stop in Amsterdam aside Paris, occasionally. The bone of contention on my side is that once you are having more than one stop in an European country, then transit visa may be needed. Except if the rule has changed. REGARDLESS OF THE EUROPEAN AIRLINE, ensure it's one stop and NEVER ASSUME. The flight details screenshot below is showing two stops with Airfrance departing from Nigeria. They wouldn't let the passenger board from Nigeria without any schengen visa anyways, when having more than one European country stop over. Eriokanmi: 1 Like

That is what our general belief has been. But now some airlines are now into partnership. From the screenshot below, Air France doesn't have any flight to Toronto, instead, they reconnect you with KLM (my own belief). I have heard people complaining about this 2 stops in European countries with transit visa requirements, was why I dropped my two kobo. I have used Qatar but their liquid stuff disapproval to board with you was my disappointment. I don't want to remember what they trash from my hand luggage 😕 😒 Eriokanmi:

Yes Skyscanner is trusted. I also use Kayak sometimes too. My advice would be for you to try to google and check price directly from the airline site. Make comparison before making final decision. Cheers!!! XYZJAZZY: 2 Likes |

slimmsyyetty: Airfrance have flight route to YYZ Toronto, I have used them multiple times. No transit required.... Lagos - Paris - Toronto. But sometimes they pear with KLM and will require a transit visa because will route via two European countries in this case. You just need to check the itinerary very carefully before you booked with them. |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Eriokanmi: 11:05pm On Jan 19 |
slimmsyyetty:Thanks for sharing. I have never seen it this way before. But I think if the passenger is not leaving the airport, there should not be any issue...my opinion. The best option is to clarify from the airlines or travel agent before making payment. In 2019, I noticed i was going to have a very long layover in Dubai on my way to Los Angeles so I approached travelstart to find out if there was going to be an arrangement in place cos the offer was about the cheapest, maybe cos of the long layover. It came to my knowledge that we were going to be lodged in a 3-star hotel inside Dubai, owned by emirates airlines. To benefit, we would need a visa to enter Dubai at the airport. I never knew about this until after making that inquiry. I later booked because of the freebies offered( free entry visa, free bus ride to and from hotel, dinner and free lodging). 1 Like |

Exactly! It's the same thing we are saying. As long as it is one stop over, regardless of the European airline, then it requires no transit visa. Once you have over one stop over, then it requires a transit visa because sometimes, at a particular point in time, airlines do partnership. If they don't have any flight available that is going to your destination at that moment, they will partner with a partnership airline. There are flights going from Paris to Toronto from Nigeria (with one stop) but some may be ignorant to unknowingly pick the one with two stops in different European countries probably because of low fare. But they won't let them board from Nigeria. Imagine the psychological trauma of missing your flight and paying extra to re-book because one lack information oluayebenz: |

slimmsyyetty: Truth 💯 |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by slimmsyyetty: 12:34am On Jan 20 |
It happens ooo. The reason is because sometimes, an airline may not have a flight going to your destination at that point in time, so they partner with partnership airline. For instance, Iberia is in partnership with British Airways. You may book Iberia but they may re connect you to BA, if need be. I have never had the experience personally with two schengen stops, too but I have seen a lot of people falling into this trap, ignorantly. Imagine the trauma you experience missing your flight and paying extra to re- book because of what you were ignorant of. Air Morocco then partner with Turkish airline sometimes. Once you land in casablanca, they may connect you with Turkish airline to Frankfurt depending on the availability of their own airline to Frankfurt. Yes, when emirates flight was still available in Nigeria, you need to get a transit visa to Dubai when having a stop in Dubai with another airline before boarding to your destination from Dubai, except you travel with emirates airline, then you don't need a transit visa to Dubai before you enroute to your final destination I have never flown emirates because I use cheap Ethiopian airline anytime I go to Dubai 😍😂 Eriokanmi: 1 Like |

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Eriokanmi: 8:24am On Jan 20 |
slimmsyyetty:I see. The dubai case was because Emirates, which I boarded from lagos in 2019 had almost a day layover in dubai and it was so cheap. I guessed it was because of the aircraft which was going to lift us from dubai to Los Angeles . It was their A380 Airbus, a double-decked aircraft which had the capacity to airlift about 700 passengers at a time. That was my first time of boarding the amazing Air beast. Maybe they delayed departure deliberately in order to allow passengers coming from different locations to be able to link up. The visa we obtained to enter dubai city and enjoy in their hotel was the entry visa, not transit visa cos we passed through their immigration and our passport was stamped and we joined the bus waiting outside their new terminal to convey us inside town |

mojisolani: You should write out a letter to explain the mistake and provide the correct information. Don't forget to include your UCI and application number on the letter. After you have written out the letter, then you should do the following: 1. Follow @level1's advice. Raise a webform, then attach or upload that same letter to the webfom so they can add this letter to your file. 2. Send an email to nairobi@international.gc.ca or nrobi@international.gc.ca, but remember to attach that letter to this email. Write URGENT as the subject of the email. 1 Like |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Acheamah223: 2:59pm On Jan 20 |
Hello there, good day! I have a quick question. My family and I have applied for a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to Canada, but we have not yet done biometrics. Due to the delays from our immigration lawyer, we couldn't submit our visa earlier, and the Chinese New Year is approaching. Since that's the best time to travel as we currently live and work in China, we figured that we wouldn't be able to get the visa before the holidays. Therefore, we decided to go on a Europe tour instead. Unfortunately, our visa was refused because the consulate was unable to check our ticket. We had only made an airline reservation and gotten the itinerary, but it had a payment time of 30 minutes and would be canceled if we did not make payment. I didn't know that they needed the reservation to be active until the visa was issued. However, since I have used this type of reservation for almost all of our family visas I have applied for and never encountered any problems before, I thought it was fine. But unfortunately, it resulted in us being refused. My question is, should we raise a webform and inform RICC about this refusal, or since it happened after the submission of our visa, should we just leave it? I did ask our lawyer and she said we can raise a webform and inform them but I'm just not sure if that's the right move to make. |
