Flying Through Frankfurt. Transit Visa Needed?

[mas000]

Hello,

First time poster here.
I plan to visit home (Lebanon) in a couple of weeks. I only hold a Lebanese passport.

I will be flying JFK-FRA-BEY and back on Lufthansa airlines the whole way. I used to always get transit visa's through Germany but recently the German consulate website added the following details to their consulate website. It doesnt sound like I need a transit visa, but I thought I would check:

See the Link here at the http://www.germany.info/Vertretung/u...sit__Visa.html

The consulate states that

Only three airports in Germany, have an International Transit Area

* Frankfurt/Main
* Munich (München)
* Hamburg (limited time frame only 04.30 a.m. to 11.30 p.m.)

Please check with your Airline, if you have to pick up your baggage and/or have to check-in again.
If so, you need to enter Germany. You will need a transit visa.

If I am flying lufthansa all the way. So I will not need to pick up my baggage and I only need to clear security and walk over to my next gate. Does this mean I dont need a transit visa? This verbiage was added recently because it wasnt there earlier in the year.


Thanks,
mas
