Hi travelers, I’m booking flights with layovers in different countries and got confused about **transit visa rules**. Some airlines say it’s not needed if you don’t leave the airport, while others recommend checking each country’s requirements. * In what situations do **Indian passport holders need a transit visa**? * Are there specific countries where transit visas are almost always required? * Has anyone faced issues during layovers because they didn’t have the right visa? I was reading about this on IndiaTourPackages.com, but I’d love to hear **real experiences and tips** from frequent flyers here. Thanks in advance ✈️
