bta

[bbeverele@ya]

Why do they ask for a BTA at the airport to leave the UK to go to the USA?

[SteveD]

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a BTA?

[dzug]

They've never asked me for one.

Don't know what it is anyway.

[markysngc]

I've traveled to US several times and never been asked for a BTA, n fact not sure what it is! A quick google and it could be...

British Triathlon Association
British Tinnitus Association
British Trout Association
British Thyroid Association
or the best one
British Toilet Assoication

None of them sound very likely in this context though

[Dee Sa]

pls can u explain yourself more clearly bbeverle@ya ?
who is the "they" that ask for a BTA [British ??] and what is it. and where do you get it, does it cost money ? because I fly to US quite frequently and I am baffled.

[kaw69]

Came back from New York last week, travel a couple of times a year across the pond never heard of a BTA

[auntiebertie]

Go to the USA at least 4 times a year and have never heard of a BTA either.

[Mumof2]

It could mean Basic Travel Allowance ???

[bossy]

BTA is basic travel allowance, does it really exist, or is it just a scam.
