Visa requirements for stop off in US
Hi,
Anyone who has gone to Oz via the states, can you tell me what the visa requirements are for a stop off in the US?
We're planning to change planes in LA but don't want to spend any more time there than needs be.
Looking on the US embassy site, it looks like we don't have to apply for a visa under the Visa Waiver Program which allows british citizens transit rights through the US as long as they have machine readable passports (and meet the other obvious requirements).
Anyone know for definate?
Cheers,
Rob

My mum and I had stopovers in New York, Las Vegas and Hawaii on the way to Adelaide last September. No problem, just quite a lot of time spent queuing at the security checks!
