I need to get to the Caribbean from Europe but had overstayed in the US about 7 years back and am supposedly denied re-entry fr 10 years... since all reasonable flight scenarios I find involved going through a US Airport (like Miami), am I correct that I cannot connect from an international inbound to an international outbound without going through US Immigration and they can thus stop me from doing the connection? Likewise on the return?
Best Answer
You wouldn't even make it onto the plane. The airline won't let you check in without a valid ESTA or visa, and you won't get an ESTA or visa with your 10 year bar (assuming you are honest with the questions, which you should be unless you want to be in an even bigger world of hurt)
