yep, you show the visa and they say “only resident visas don’t require an onward ticket”. Been through it multiple times. Barcelona via Qatar airlines was the most recent
actually it’s almost always the airline. The last 3x back in the airline made me show proof of exit - they don’t know what a DTV is and I’ve had to buy (and cancel) a short flight or bus ticket before I could board.
I have a suspicion that the army of small time traveler blogs/vlogs and influencers have had a combined effect. I don’t have data but I feel the difference in places like Chiang Mai and Vietnam over the last few years. Certainly the sailing blogs that started a few years back had a massive influence on the sailing world (which is my little space)
it’s the Dutch way… 😂. We love rules when we can use them on others, but nothing brightens a dutchy’s day more than when we can break/bend them to cheat and get ahead of others. Have you ever seen Dutch queue in a store? Non stop trickery!
