What is it?

A flight reservation is not a fake ticket

It's a real airline booking held in the same GDS systems used by every travel agency worldwide — at a fraction of the cost of a refundable ticket.

01

What's a flight reservation?

A real airline booking with a verifiable PNR (Passenger Name Record) code. The reservation is held in the airline's GDS system but not ticketed — meaning you don't pay the full airfare, just a service fee from $10.00.

02

Why embassies require it

Visa officers need proof of onward travel before issuing a visa. A flight reservation satisfies this requirement without forcing you to buy an expensive ticket that might need refunding if the visa is denied.

03

QR-code verified

Every PDF includes a unique QR code linking to our verification portal. Embassy staff scan it to instantly confirm the booking is authentic — the same authentication method used by airlines for real boarding passes.

Visa-specific Guidance

Requirements by destination country

Different visas have different requirements. Tap a country below to see what we recommend for that specific application.

Schengen Visa Flight Reservation

Schengen Visa Code Article 14 requires visa applicants to provide proof of travel arrangements — including outbound and return flight bookings. Our flight reservations are accepted by all 27 Schengen consulates and their outsourced visa centres (VFS Global, TLScontact, BLS).

Validity: 30-day standard validity covers the typical 15-21 day Schengen visa processing time.
Round-trip recommended: Include both outbound and return flights in your reservation.
Dates must match: Travel dates should align with the dates declared on your application form.
Country of entry: Your first Schengen entry should be at an airport in the country whose visa you're applying for.

UK Standard Visitor Visa Flight Booking

The UK Standard Visitor visa (UKVI) requires applicants to demonstrate they will leave the UK at the end of their stay. The UKVI guidance specifically lists "evidence of intended travel" as supporting documentation.

Processed at TLScontact / VFS Global: Our documents accepted at every UK visa centre.
Standard validity: 30 days, more than enough for 15 working day UK processing.
Include return flight: Demonstrates intent to leave the UK before visa expiry.
Sponsor letters: If you have a UK sponsor, your flight reservation supports their invitation.

US B1/B2 Visa Interview Documents

The US B1 (business) and B2 (tourism) visas are interview-based. While the US Embassy doesn't require a flight reservation as documentary submission, applicants are routinely asked at interview to demonstrate their travel plans.

Bring to interview: A flight reservation PDF shows the officer you have concrete plans.
Don't buy a real ticket: US visa denial rates can be high for some nationalities — never pay for a real ticket before approval.
Supports non-immigrant intent: A return flight demonstrates you'll leave the US after your visit.
Includes US carriers: American, Delta, United, JetBlue — all 400+ carriers available.

Canada Visitor Visa (TRV) Travel Document

For Canada Temporary Resident Visa applications, IRCC requires applicants to show "ties to home country and travel plans". A flight reservation is the standard way to demonstrate planned travel.

VFS Global Canada centres: Our reservations accepted at all Canadian visa centres globally.
Multiple-entry visa: If applying for a 10-year multiple-entry, the flight reservation shows initial intended travel.
Air Canada and partners: Domestic carrier options available alongside international ones.

Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600)

Multi-stop journeys: Common for Australia trips — use our multi-city feature.

Stopover visas: If transiting through UAE, our reservations work for stopover visa applications.
Combine with hotel booking: Get a matching hotel confirmation from our hotel service.

Frequently asked questions

What is a flight reservation for a visa application?

A flight reservation for a visa application is a real airline booking with a verifiable PNR (Passenger Name Record) code that proves your intended travel dates and route. Embassies require this as proof of onward travel. Unlike a paid ticket, you only pay a small service fee from $10.00, and the document is delivered as a PDF within 5 minutes.

Is a flight reservation accepted for Schengen, UK, US and Canada visas?

Yes. Our flight reservations are accepted at VFS Global, TLScontact, BLS International, CGI Federal and all major visa application centres worldwide. They are accepted for Schengen (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands and 22 more), UK Standard Visitor visa, US B1/B2 visa interviews, Canada visitor visa, Australia visa, and 190+ other countries.

Is this a real booking or a fake document?

Every flight reservation we issue is a real booking held in a major airline GDS (Amadeus, Sabre, or Travelport). The PNR code is genuine and verifiable. Every PDF includes a QR code linking to our public verification portal at onwarditinerary.com/verify so embassy staff can confirm authenticity instantly. We never photoshop or generate fake tickets.

How long is the flight reservation valid?

Our standard flight reservations are valid for 30 days from issue. This is sufficient for almost all visa application timelines (Schengen typically 15-21 days, UK 15 working days, Canada 14 days). For longer validity, contact [email protected].

Can I customise the airline and flight times?

Yes. After you search your route and date, you'll see all available real flights from 400+ airlines. You select the specific flight, airline, departure time, and routing that suits your application. We then book exactly that flight in the airline's GDS.

Can I get a refund if my visa is denied?

You can request a full refund any time before you download your PDF. Once downloaded, the service is considered delivered. Since the underlying reservation is a GDS hold (not a paid ticket), there's no airline ticket cost to recover — if your visa is denied, the reservation simply expires.
