Do I need an Airport transit visa for my two layovers in Schengen?

[sankalpanand]

Hello everyone,

I'm traveling from US to India via Europe. I'm an Indian passport holder.
I have two layovers (France and Europe) before my final destination in India - both within three hours. I checked the transit visa requirements for Schengen zone and Indians are exempted from both France and Italy.

It should not be a problem if I'm flying through just one of them.

However, I learned from someone that an airport transit visa might be required if you're traveling through two Schengen airports.

I called Italian airlines and they said they don't have this information. Did anyone face this situation before? How can I make sure?

Thanks in advance,
Sankalp
