Airside connection at DFW (LX/AA)
If this questions has been asked before, I cannot find it, so
apologies/thanks in advance if you can simply point me to the right thread. We intend to fly GVA-ZRH-DFW-YVR (Geneva-Zurich-Dallas-Vancouver) and back (symmetrical route). I have already checked on the DFW website about transfers and it states that "The Skylink high-speed train, inside security, connects all five terminals with an average ride time of less than 5 minutes", but the website does not make it clear whether one needs to cross US immiegration to make an international transfer. http://www.dfwairport.com/transport/connect.html Does "inside security" mean when we step of the LX (Swiss) flight in DFW that we will not have to clear US immigration to travel through to Canada with AA? The reason that I am asking this question is that although all the PAX have passports valid for the destination (Canada), the newer machine readable passports are required for the United States and not all the PAX have these. If it is necessary to pass US immigration to get to Canada it will simply be easier to choose a route avoiding a transfer in the US (GVA-ZRH-YUL-YVR for example). I know that one has (or did have last time I was there) to pass US immigration at JFK to transfer, but some airports (LHR being a notable example) operate airside inter-terminal transfers... |
