6 mo RT booking, the "onward ticket strategy"

Featured Replies

I usually get a METV. This time I will rendezvous with my fiancé in Laos, marry, and be based there.
When I booked my flight online a popup window asked if I had a visa and did I want to show it now. I declined. Will my onward ticket to Vientiane allow me to board? I am flying EVA out of the US if that matters.

What is your nationality? Does your flight to Vientiane leave from Suvarnabhumi within a few hours after you arrive there? If doing an international to international transfer, passing Immigration in Bangkok should usually be unnecessary and you will not require a visa. (That will not be true if your flight to Vientiane leaves from Don Muang. In that case, you would need at least a transit visa or visa-on-arrival if you are not eligible for a visa exemption when entering Thailand.) If still in doubt, you should discuss your full travel itinerary with both your airlines to ensure an airside transfer is possible in your case.

Yes. 

At departure the airline may ask for onward flight. Your ticket to Vientiane will satisfy that request.

Assume you have a USA pp.

Yes, I do have a USA pp. And our plan is to visit with friends in Thailand for 2 weeks or so before returning to Vientiane. Thank you both for the input.
