There is no set time for AVO to contact you to redo medical. Sometimes they will extend your medical and ask give you a limited time to land. Medical is typically valid for a year. When did you apply and when is your medical expiring?

Congratulations !!!

For the 3 airlines you mentioned, you do not need a transit visa as long as they are not transiting the USA.

As for cost, it depends on the date you plan to travel. You will have to visit the individual site for connections and cost.

Also you can try Lufthansa too.
