Totally OT, somewhat related... I can't help it. I posted it in Airliners of India forum as well but got no firm answers.
I hold Indian passport. I want to know whether I can do LHR-FCO-TIP on AZ metal without a schengen visa. I have both UK and Libyan visa. AZ fares are much cheaper compared to direct flights with BA, and I don't want to fly "Afriqiyah" from LGW. Will I be denied boarding at LHR for not possesing transit visa for Italy?
Anyone?
(Coming back to the topic, when I recently applied for UK visa, I had a print-out of my 6 month online bank statement. Desk clerk at visa center asked me to get a sealed and signed copy of it on the bank's letter head. This despite I having several UK visa stickers on my passport and lots of stamps! They certainly don't want poor souls on their soil)
