Chyba raczej bedzie wymagana wiza tranzytowa. Bez wizy mozna ladowac, ale
przetrzymuja Cie w specjalnym pomieszczeniu i nie mozesz nigdzie sie ruszyc po
lotnisku (na ogol kontynuujesz lot tym samym samolotem). Jesli bedziesz
zmieniala samoloty to bez wizy nie da rady.

Jeszcze nie slyszalam, zeby ktos od kogos wymagal wizy w tranzycie!!! (nawet jesli zmieniasz linie
lotnicza). TRANZYT oznacza, ze nie przekraczasz granicy.

Suspension of Transit Without Visa and ITI Programs


U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

TAKE IMMEDIATE STEPS TO MAKE

AIR TRAVEL EVEN SAFER

Special international in-transit programs suspended

WASHINGTON, DC –The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S.
Department of State today suspended two programs that allow certain
international air passengers to travel through the United States for transit
purposes without first obtaining a visa. The programs, known as the Transit
Without Visa program (TWOV) and the International-to-International transit
program (ITI), have been suspended. The action takes effect at 11:00 a.m.,
Saturday August 2, 2003. (Note: All times are U.S. EDT). This action does not
affect U.S. citizens or citizens from visa waiver countries.

Homeland Security issued instructions to all airlines to no longer allow
passengers to utilize these transit programs. Homeland Security agencies are
also taking additional steps to increase security at airports and on airplanes
that normally transport and process passengers under these programs. These new
measures are in addition to significant increases in aviation security
implemented since September 11 such as reinforced cockpit doors, deployment of
federal air marshals, enhanced federalized baggage and passenger screening and
armed Federal Flight Deck Officers piloting some jetliners.

It is the intention of both Departments to reinstate the TWOV and ITI programs
as soon as additional security measures can be implemented to safeguard the
programs from terrorists who wish to gain access to the U.S. or U.S. airspace
without going through the consular screening process. Officials have already
begun this process of identifying possible steps that could be taken to further
secure the transit programs. Homeland Security and the Department of State are
soliciting comments from the public about the action and will reassess the
suspension over the next 60 days after reviewing the responses. Current
intelligence will also be a factor considered when deciding to re-implement the
program.

Recent specific intelligence indicates that terrorist groups have been planning
to exploit these transit programs to gain access to the U.S. or U.S. airspace
without going through the consular screening process. The steps announced
today are designed to augment security against possible terrorist threats and
to protect U.S. citizens and foreign nationals who fly into and out of the
United States.

“Our number one mission is to protect Americans and American interests from the
threat of terrorism and we realize that terrorists aim to exploit our
vulnerabilities and freedoms,” said Homeland Security Secretary Tom
Ridge. “The steps announced today, while aggressive, are an appropriate
response to the threat. We know they will have an impact on international
travelers, but we believe they are necessary in order to protect lives and
property.”

Homeland Security and State will make three exceptions to these actions to
accommodate travelers who may be immediately impacted. The three exceptions
are: 1) TWOV or ITI passengers in flight at the time the regulation goes into
effect will be allowed to continue in transit and depart the U. S. subject to
inspection and an evaluation of risk. 2) Travelers who purchased their tickets
as TWOV or ITI passengers on or before July 24, 2003, and who are scheduled to
depart for transit through the U.S. before 12:01 a.m., Tuesday, August 5, 2003,
need not obtain a visa to transit the U.S. For any flights scheduled to depart
after 12:01 a.m. August 5 that include a stop in the U.S, however, these
travelers must now either obtain a visa or change their travel itinerary to
exclude a stop in the U.S. 3) If a person has already traveled through the
U.S. as a TWOV or ITI passenger on the first leg of their trip, and uses the
return portion of their round trip ticket before 11:00 a.m., August 9, 2003,
they will be permitted to make a stop in the U.S. without a visa on the return
portion of their trip. They will be processed by U.S. Customs and Border
Protection inspectors upon arrival in the United States. If they plan to
transit the U.S. after that date and time, however, they must either obtain a
visa or change their return itinerary to exclude a stop in the U.S.

The Transit Without Visa program has been in use in the United States since
1952. It applies to passengers who normally would be required to obtain a visa
to travel to the United States. Under the TWOV program, passengers arriving in
the United States from a foreign country are permitted to travel through the
United States to another foreign destination without first obtaining a visa to
stop and change planes in the United States. Passengers under the TWOV program
go through the full border inspection process upon arrival in the U.S. Under
the TWOV program, a passenger may stop at one or two U.S. airports en route to
another foreign destination. If on a domestic flight to a second U.S. airport,
the airline is responsible for ensuring that the passenger does not illegally
enter the United States. Airlines provide contract security escorts and are
required to maintain control of the passenger’s passport and other travel
documents.

The International-to-International transit program also allows passengers
arriving from foreign countries to transit through the United States to another
foreign destination without first obtaining a visa. Unlike the TWOV program,
however, ITI passengers may only transit through one airport, and they may not
leave the international transit lounge while connecting planes at that airport.

In 2002, the top five countries from which TWOV passengers arrived in the
United States were Brazil, Mexico, Korea, the Philippines, and Peru. The
greatest number of TWOV and ITI passengers transited the U.S. through airports
in Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Dallas and Houston.

Homeland Security agencies involved in this action include U.S. Customs and
Border Protection, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the
Transportation Security Administration. They will work closely with airport
authorities, airlines and state and local law enforcement to implement this new
policy.
