US is a funny place, you can't transfer from one international flight to another without entering the country.
So flying from UK to Mexico with a stop in Miami will involve immigration and all the jazz in Miami (including the need for a visa if your passport normally requires it).
This is usually not the case in Europe. You stay in the non-schengen transfer zone and walk from one gate to another.
