I'm a citizen of Turkey. I was told I needed a transit visa to pass through Germany on my way home to watch the Champions League Final last May. I went and got my German transit visa, and noone checked it, neither passing through on the way there nor on the way back.

I cannot recall if the airline checked it before departure though. I had an H1 which expired the week after I landed back in the states.

Now I want to go to Dubai. My H1 is still expired, but I have the approval for an extension. I just need to make the Consulate in Dubai for a stamp. I bought a ticket on KLM this time.

Will I be allowed to board the plane without an airport transit visa?

Such a pain in the neck. It's complete and utter discrimination - I can't leave the airport anyways, why make me go through the hassle - I'm only on Dutch soil for 3 hours changing planes.
