    Proof of onward travel

    I've followed the discussions on this forum about "return ticket or one-way ticket" for a long time. I know the relevant passages in the EU's Schengen Border Code and the EU's Practical Handbook for Border Guards by heart. Well, not by heart but I can find them online in my sleep. I do not...

    Proof of onward travel

    Thinking some more about the "get out of the Schengen zone" ticket if you are really worried about not having one upon entry into Spain you can buy one cheaply. I saw that today Ryanair had a ticket for 25€ and change for a Santiago to Dublin flight. Buy one before leaving home. Once in...

    New long-term French visa possibility for some UK citizens

    Not necessarily political. There must be a lot of people (and businesses) all over the Schengen area that find the system, at least the 90/180 day part of it, doesn´t really work for them. And I´m not talking about expats here.

    Who has been on the Camino for more than 12 months? How was it?

    ...walk in Romania that may take up two months. It has been reported that starting in April time spent there will count against the 90 day Schengen limit. There are bear and wolf warnings for the Transilvanica...

    Who has been on the Camino for more than 12 months? How was it?

    ...Winter is a good time for the southern routes. Agadir to Oujda via Ouarzazate works well. I may have misunderstood your question. Spending a year in Spain, assuming you have rights under Schengen or the appropriate visa is easy. Spending a year on Camino is going to require some serious...

    One-Way airline ticket

    Please 🙏 let us not go into the ETIAS discussion on this thread. Not only Google, but a forum search will find enough other threads to reveal the extent of the non-news. =1&o=date']Click here to read a few such threads, if you dare!

    One-Way airline ticket

    ...System, is a new travel authorization system designed by the European Union to enhance security for visa-exempt travellers entering the Schengen Area. Quick fact: Starting in May 2025, more than 1.4 billion individuals will be required to obtain an ETIAS authorization prior to their travel...

    One-Way airline ticket

    Isn’t it soon that US citizens are going to have to get a Schengen visa soon? Like May?

    Pros & Cons of One-way Flights

    Thank you @trecile for bolding some of my previous post; it made a connection in my mind. Currently the Schengen treaty counties have a list of other countries whose nationals are allowed to visit ports of entry without holding a visa. The authorities are expecting that these visitors from...

    Pros & Cons of One-way Flights

    As the following quote states, possession of a return ticket isn't required, but the ability to purchase one is.

    Pros & Cons of One-way Flights

    While I have not challenged to rule, it is my understanding that if you are a US citizen and flying from the US to Europe (Schengen area) they require that you have a return ticket purchased if a tourist staying 90days or less - so they know you won’t be stuck and a financial drain on them. If...

    One-Way airline ticket

    I flew out of Los Angeles, Ca. to Barcelona with a connector in Canada. I did not have a flight home when I landed. I took a train to Pamplona stayed overnight and then a taxi to SJPP. No one ever asked me for a ticket home. I booked my flight home after about 20 days when I was in Sahagun.

    One-Way airline ticket

    Where did you come from? Your avatar says Spain. From anywhere in the Schengen zone it's irrelevant. Let alone Spain! The OP is listed as living in the USA. Technically, when you enter Spain you must have both the plane ticket to Spain and either a return one to your country of origin, or to a...

    Camino from Luxembourg

    Clarification of new entry rules in Oct 24.

    ...immigration. A couple of times, I actually had enough time to go outside and back in and did so. One exception was when I changed planes in Schengen with origin and destination non-Schengen and got entry and exit stamps—and two Schengen days because the two flights were before and after...
