Does anyone have differing experiences? At JFK on the way back to HKG will they ask for visa or just in Hong Kong? This helps plan.
Will do simple review when home about JAL economy.
Thanks.
Was this on your positioning flight, or flying CX? I posted about my experience at JFK using CX. The agent was running around from supervisor to supervisor to make sure the visa I had was okay.
At the end of the day they have no way to verify if your visa is valid, but if you’re gonna fake a visa to board I would suggest making sure the date matches your arrival date into Vietnam.
