The term "dummy ticket" is misleading. A real one is NOT fake — it's a genuine flight reservation with a verifiable PNR code, held in an airline's system, accepted by embassies worldwide. From $10.00 per person.
Any service offering free, instant-download "dummy tickets" without a verifiable PNR is creating fake documents. Embassies detect these instantly and visa rejections can ban you from re-applying for up to 5 years. Always use a service that provides real airline reservations with verifiable PNR codes.
There's a lot of confusion online about what a dummy ticket actually is. Here's the truth, side by side.
Many people think a dummy ticket is a Photoshop-made or generated PDF that looks like a flight ticket but isn't real. These exist (sold by scam sites) — and embassies detect them in seconds. Submitting a fake ticket leads to visa denial and bans.
A legitimate dummy ticket from OnwardItinerary is a real airline reservation with a genuine PNR code that embassies and airlines can verify directly on the airline's website. We never create fake documents.
Some assume a dummy ticket is a fully paid airline ticket. It's not. A paid ticket costs $500-$2,000 and is what you'd use to actually fly.
The reservation is real and confirmed in the airline's system, but only a small service fee of $10.00 is paid — not the full airfare. Embassies don't require paid tickets, just proof of travel plans.
Some forums claim embassies reject dummy tickets. This applies to fake tickets only.
Schengen, UK, US, and Canada visa guidelines all explicitly recommend NOT buying real tickets before visa approval. Verifiable flight reservations are the embassy-preferred method of proving travel plans.
People get confused between "dummy ticket", "flight itinerary", "flight reservation", "PNR booking", "sample ticket", "onward ticket".
Different countries and forums use different terms for the exact same thing: a verifiable temporary flight reservation. Embassies recognise it regardless of what you call it.
All of these terms refer to the same document — a real, temporary, verifiable flight reservation for your visa application.
Whatever you call it, OnwardItinerary provides the real thing — verifiable, embassy-accepted, instant PDF.
Every reservation we issue includes these embassy-required elements in a professional e-ticket format.
Genuine 6-character Passenger Name Record (PNR) issued by the airline's GDS system. Verifiable on the airline's "Manage Booking" page.
Real airline name, flight number, aircraft type, departure/arrival times, and routing — all from current scheduled flights.
Your name exactly as on your passport, plus all additional passengers in your booking — formatted to airline standards.
Embassy staff can scan the QR to instantly verify the booking on our public verification portal — independent of the airline's website.
Standard 30-day validity from the issue date — long enough to cover almost any visa processing timeline.
Professional layout that matches how real airline e-tickets look — exactly what visa officers expect to see in your application.
It's not about cutting corners — embassies actually prefer this approach. Here's why.
Avoid both extremes — "free" services that deliver fakes, and $50+ services that charge a premium for no extra value.
