Hi Everyone! I am brand now to having layovers in Europe and am hoping to ease my worries about missing any flights due to customs/immigration. I have a valid US Passport and am traveling from Chicago to Italy, with a layover in Paris. The Paris layover is 3 hrs and 40 min, so not too concerned about catching flights there. However, I am a little worried about my way home and would appreciate some clarity about how the process will work, since I have two layovers. Here's the schedule--
Rome to Paris
1 hr 15 min layover
Paris to Amsterdam
1 hr 40 min layover
Amsterdam to Chicago (home)
Does this schedule sound reasonable and feasible? At which point will I have to go through immigration/customs? This is via Air France and not all on the same aircraft. (If it's anything like domestic travel, I assume I won't have to keep checking and rechecking my bag?)
Thank you SO much for your help with this! I am looking forward to the trip very much and wish happy travels to all of you. :)
