Hi! Great video. Do you know if you can transit without going through immigration if flights are booked under different PNR but you have no checked luggage?

@theresearchfiles 11 ай бұрын

Yes usually you don't need to go through immigration without checked luggage.

Hi, thanks for your video, I’m from El Salvador, flying from El Sal > San Francisco > Taiwan > Vietnam. My layover in Taiwan will be 4 hours with EVA AIR, I intend to check baggage but have not considered any visa since I don’t plan to enter the country. Do I need a transit visa? I’ve seen option of visas but they asked for a reservation hotel and I don’t plan to visit Taiwan. Thanks for your It really brings me calm before my trip.

Hi! Im coming from Vietnam to Taiwan. When we land in Taiwan, we have one hour between connecting flights. Our connecting flight is going to be from Taiwan to LAX. Flight is supposed to land in Terminal 1 so we will need to go to Terminal 2. Do you think that 1 hour will be enough time?

@amywynn5366 29 күн бұрын

Could you also help me with the route we need to take throughout the airport?

@@amywynn5366 Hi, if your flights are booked on the same PNR and your baggage checked-through, after getting off your plane, follow the 'Terminal 2' sign. You can either walk (10-15 min) or take the skytrain to T2. you will have to get your boarding pass (if it has not been given to you earlier) and go through security check before you can board the connecting flight. If your flights are on the same PNR the airlines will make sure that you have enough time to transfer. Having said that, it's hard to be sure. www.tripadvisor.com.my/ShowTopic-g293913-i9546-k14366374-Taoyuan_airport_transfer_between_terminal_1_to_2-Taipei.html

If you check in your bag at the LAX, then don't they send it to the destination? that you don't need to claim the bag at the layover in TPE and check in again? I'll be flying to ICN Korea via EVA, layover in TPE soon. I took another flight some years ago and I vaguely remember they sent the checked bag to ICN that I didn't need to do anything at TPE. I wonder if things have changed since then.
