When group action on cartesian product is transitive?
$begingroup$
Let $G$ be a group acting transitively on sets $Omega$ and $Lambda$. Then there is a natural induced action of $G$ on cartesian product $Omega times Lambda$. I can prove that if $G$ is finite this action is transitive if and only if $G = G_{omega}G_{lambda}$ for all $omegainOmega, lambdainLambda$ (here $G_{omega}$ and $G_{lambda}$ are stabilisers of $omega$ and $lambda$, respectively).
My question. Is this true, when $G$ is infinite group?

Yes I believe so. This follows from two statenments.
If a group $G$ acts trantively on a set $X$, and $H le G$, then $H$ acts transitively on $X$ if and only if $G = HG_x$ for all $x in X$.
With your hypotheses, $G$ acts trasitively on $Omega times Lambda$ if and only if $G_omega$ acts transitively on $Lambda$ for all (or equivalently some) $omega in Omega$.
I don't really see how finiteness is involved in either of these claims. Which of these are you unsure of, and in which direction?

thank you very much! Your first observation helped me to understand how to avoid arguments, which using finiteness.
