I am very unhappy with Travisa and will ask for them to cover some of these expenses but I doubt they will. I will be lucky to get Aeroflot to refund my original ticket.
I am so sorry about that. I hate when "stuff" conflicts. The SVO website says transiting to Belarus requires a visa but I doubt the State Dept knows that. Ultimately, it's the folks on the ground there that determine your fate. Press on Xeno! I'm pulling for you.
