Being part of the Schengen area without internal border controls means that you can visit these countries on a single valid schengen visa.

These countries do not carry out border checks at their internal borders (i.e. borders between two Schengen states); carry out harmonized controls, based on clearly defined criteria, at their external borders (i.e. borders between a Schengen state and a non-Schengen state).

The EU states that are not, or not yet part of the Schengen area, are Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Ireland, Romania and the United Kingdom .This means that a flight from one of these states to a Schengen state is regarded as an external flight and is subject to border checks, and a separate visa of the respective country other than Schengen visa.
