It's not a dumb question if you don't know the answer.

In this case, if you do not go through that country's immigration then you technically do NOT enter the country. If changing planes without going through immigration then you're airside and in international territory. Lots of weird and wonderful rules there as you're still subject to that country's laws even though you're not in it... sort of...

Only when you go landside can you truely say you've visited that country. If people ask I only say that I've been airside at the airport, not to the country itself.

You sure can. While you are at their airport buy a post card!


arizona wolfman
Well, of course you can because you actually were there. I had to spend an hour in the airport at Incheon, Korea on my way to Beijing. So therefore, I have been to both Korea and China.


neanderthal
yes, to that country's airport. been there done that.


worm w
not unless u have something to say about that country


traveler
That's not a dumb question! If somebody asks me if I've been to a particular place, and all I've seen was the airport, I'd say I've just been to the airport.

i would say that because even if you was just there for a few seconds you were still there.

If you want to be technical... then yes... but u really have not.. because when you say you have been to a country everyone thinks that you went and stayed there 4 a ll bit... but just to show off you can say you have been there :)

Im gonna be the annoying guy and say no. My reasoning is if you dont have the stamp in your passport then no, you havent entered that country.
