Transit BOM
Hi,
I have done a search but couldn't find the exact info. I have a ticket BKK-BOM-JNB all ticketed as one ticket flying Thai and SA in business class. The Thai flight arrives at about 10pm and the SA flight departs at a bit after 2am, so approximately a 4hr transit. Australian passport holder. Will have checked luggage.
1. Do I need a visa for the transit?
Note: I don't think I do but I don't want to be denied boarding by Thai in BKK.
2. Will I be able to access the Star Alliance (I think Lufthansa) lounge during the transit?
Thanks in advance.
