A dummy ticket for a visa is a flight itinerary document that shows your planned dates, route and flight numbers for a visa application — without buying an actual airline ticket. Embassies ask for proof of onward travel, but they don't want you to pay for flights before your visa is approved. A dummy flight ticket (also called a flight reservation or verifiable itinerary) is the standard, sensible way to meet that requirement.

Dummy ticket vs. a paid airline ticket

A paid ticket is a confirmed purchase with a real fare and PNR you'll actually fly on. A dummy ticket is a travel-planning and visa-support document that mirrors that format — same layout, dates and route — so a consulate can see your intended trip. It is not a boarding pass and is not meant to be used to board a flight. For the actual journey you always buy a real ticket once your visa is granted.

Which visas accept a dummy flight ticket?

A flight itinerary / reservation is commonly used for Schengen visas, the UK Standard Visitor visa, US B1/B2 and many other tourist and business visas that ask for proof of onward travel. Always check the exact document list of the specific embassy you're applying to, and provide honest travel details.

Good to know: CloseFlight generates the itinerary PDF for visa and travel-planning purposes. It is not a confirmed booking or a real airline ticket — buy a real ticket for actual travel once your visa is approved.
