I'm travelling to Jordan and my itinerary mentions a technical stop in Australia. Will I need to apply for an Australian transit visa for this?

    What did the airline say when you asked them? A technical stop is usually a touch down by a flight for either technical reasons such as refuelling or to pick up and/or drop off passengers. If you’re booked to continue your journey you won’t disembark, and so typically don’t need a visa even if you would normally need one for the country where the stop is scheduled.

    @Traveller I don't know about OZ, but I know some airports that require all passengers to disembark if the plane drops off and picks up passengers. Bangkok used to do it, Taipei still does.

  • I don’t see how the implications of the technical stop can be reliably answered by anyone other than the airline.
