You may wish to avoid transit in US airports because:

    * Anyone arriving into the United States or one of its territories 
(like Puerto Rico) and not covered by the Visa Waiver Program requires at 
least a C-1 transit visa to transit the airport. This can be expensive (US
$131 minimum) and time-consuming to obtain, and you can be denied the 
visa: the requirements are the same as the full B-2 tourist visa. If you 
arrive without this visa, even for a fuel stop or transit, and aren't 
eligible for a waiver, you will be sent home and recorded as having been 
denied entry to the US.
    * The United States does not allow sterile transit, which means that 
even if you have an immediate connecting flight, you have to pass through 
Customs and Immigration. This is time-consuming and tedious (4 hours or 
more is recommended to be safe), and all travellers transiting in the USA 
using either a transit visa or the Visa Waiver Program will be 
photographed and fingerprinted.
    * You have previously been denied entry to the US or overstayed in 
the US, and have been advised that entry may be refused in future. 
Transit entry is as likely to be refused as any other entry, it will 
almost certainly be easier to avoid risking it. 

Note that all of these activities now require either a Visa Waiver or C1 
transit visa: transferring to another flight; just stopping and not 
disembarking from the plane; and refuelling stops. Sometimes these minor 
stops are not even clearly marked on preliminary itineraries for long 
haul flights. If you have reason to avoid the US, ask that the itinerary 
be double and triple checked for transit and fuel stops in the US 
(including Hawaii and Alaska).

Note: Alternative transit points described in this article often also 
require visas. Always check transit or entry conditions of all stops. You 
are responsible for checking and if necessary getting the visas and are 
advised to do so months before your planned trip.
