What is a dummy ticket and is it legal?

A dummy ticket — also called a flight reservation, flight itinerary, or onward ticket — is a verifiable booking made through Global Distribution Systems (GDS) without paying for the full ticket. It's completely legal and widely accepted by embassies, consulates, and immigration authorities worldwide for visa applications and proof of onward travel. The PNR (Passenger Name Record) code is genuine and can be verified on the airline's website during the reservation validity period.

How much does a flight reservation for visa cost?

PNR Booking offers flight reservations starting at $10 per person — the cheapest in the market. Pricing depends on the validity period you select: 48 hours ($10), 72 hours ($12), 7 days ($15), 14 days ($20), 1 month ($30), 3 months ($45), and 6 months ($60). This includes a verifiable PNR code and professional PDF itinerary.

How long does it take to receive the flight reservation?

Flight reservations are delivered instantly — typically within 2-5 minutes after successful payment. You'll receive an email with a PDF containing your flight itinerary, PNR code, passenger details, and airline information. No manual processing delays.

Which embassies and countries accept flight reservations?

Our flight reservations are accepted by embassies and consulates for visa applications to over 190 countries, including: Schengen Area (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, etc.), United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, UAE/Dubai, Japan, Thailand, Turkey, New Zealand, South Korea, China, India, South Africa, Singapore, and many more. The PNR is verifiable through standard airline check-in systems.

Is the PNR verifiable on the airline website?

Yes. Every reservation is created through legitimate GDS systems (Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport) that connect directly to airline reservation systems. The PNR code can be verified on the airline's official website using their 'Manage Booking' or 'Check-In' portal during the validity period you selected.

What's the difference between a dummy ticket and a real ticket?

A real ticket is a confirmed, paid-for seat that allows you to actually fly. A dummy ticket (flight reservation) is a verified booking that holds a seat temporarily — it has a real PNR but isn't paid in full. For visa applications, embassies only need proof of intended travel, not proof of purchase. Flight reservations cost $10 vs $500-$2,000+ for real tickets, with no cancellation penalty if your visa is denied.

Can I get a refund if my visa application is denied?

The $10-$60 reservation fee is non-refundable because we pay the GDS reservation cost when creating your PNR. However, the whole point of a flight reservation is to avoid the risk of purchasing a real ticket ($500+) and losing that money if your visa is denied. You save hundreds compared to buying a real ticket.

Do you offer hotel confirmations for visa applications?

Yes. We provide professional hotel confirmation documents for visa applications starting at $10. The confirmation includes hotel name, address, check-in/out dates, room type, and guest details. Accepted by embassies alongside flight reservations.

How long can a flight reservation be valid?

You can choose from 7 validity options: 48 hours, 72 hours, 7 days, 14 days, 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months. The PNR remains verifiable throughout the selected period. Choose a validity that covers your expected visa processing time plus a buffer.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and regional payment methods like PayFast for South African customers. All payments are processed through secure, PCI-DSS compliant gateways (Stripe and PayPal).

Can I edit my flight reservation after purchase?

Yes. You can request modifications to passenger names, flight dates, or routes within the validity period. Log into your account or use the Manage Booking page to request changes. A small administration fee may apply for changes within the first 24 hours.

Is my personal information secure?

Yes. We use bank-level 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmission. Your passport and personal details are stored encrypted in compliance with GDPR and international data protection standards. We never sell or share your data with third parties.

What is an onward ticket and why do I need one?

An onward ticket is proof that you have travel plans to leave a country after your visit. Many countries (Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, USA, UK) require airlines to check for onward tickets before boarding — even for visa-exempt travelers. A $10 flight reservation satisfies this requirement without buying an expensive ticket you won't use.

Do you provide flight reservations for Schengen visa applications?

Yes. Schengen Area embassies (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Greece, Portugal, and 17 others) require confirmed flight reservations for Schengen visa applications. Our verified reservations are accepted by all Schengen consulates. From $10 per person.

Can I get a flight reservation for a UK visitor visa?

Yes. UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) accepts verified flight reservations for Standard Visitor Visa applications. The PNR is verifiable by UKVI staff through standard airline channels. Flight reservations from $10 per person, delivered instantly as PDF.

What airlines are available in your system?

We have access to 400+ airlines worldwide through GDS systems, including major carriers: British Airways, Lufthansa, Air France, KLM, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad, Turkish Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, American Airlines, Delta, United, South African Airways, Kenya Airways, Ethiopian Airlines, Air India, IndiGo, and many regional carriers.

Do I need to provide passport details?

You need to provide your full name as shown on your passport, nationality, and date of birth. Passport number is optional but recommended for more professional-looking documentation. The name on the reservation must match your passport exactly to avoid visa application issues.

How do you compare to other flight reservation services?

PNR Booking offers the lowest prices in the market ($10 starting price vs competitors' $15-$35), instant automated delivery (vs competitors' 30-60 minute manual processing), and broader coverage (400+ airlines vs competitors' 100-200). See our detailed comparison page for feature-by-feature breakdown.

Can I book a round-trip flight reservation?

Yes. When searching for flights, select 'Round Trip' and specify both your outbound and return dates. Most visa applications require round-trip reservations to demonstrate intent to return. The price is the same for round-trip as one-way.

Is PNR Booking a registered business?

Yes. PNR Booking is operated by JSC Cards Pty Ltd, a registered South African company. We're a legitimate travel agency with IATA-affiliated GDS access. Full business details are available on our About page and Terms of Service.

Common Questions

Questions travellers ask us most

Quick answers to get you started. Browse 20+ more questions if you need deeper info.

Is this accepted for Schengen, UK, US & Canada visas?

Yes. Our flight itineraries are accepted at VFS Global, TLScontact, BLS International and all major embassies worldwide — including Schengen (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands), UK, US, Canada, Australia and 190+ more. Every document includes a real, verifiable PNR code from a 400+ airline GDS system.

How fast will I receive my document?

Most customers receive their PDF e-ticket within 5 minutes of payment. The document is sent directly to your email and is also instantly available to download from our website. QR verification works immediately.

Can the embassy verify my PNR code?

Every document is generated from a real GDS (Global Distribution System) booking. For third-party verification, every PDF includes a secure QR code that links to our verification portal at pnrbooking.com/verify — embassy staff or any third party can scan it to instantly confirm the booking is authentic.

Note: visibility of the booking on the individual airline’s own public “Manage Booking” portal varies by carrier. Some airlines only display bookings once a full ticket is paid for. This does not affect the validity of the document — the QR code is the reliable verification method.

Can I get a refund?

Yes — you can request a full refund any time before you download your PDF. Once you’ve downloaded the PDF, the service is considered delivered and becomes non-refundable (because a real booking has been made in the airline’s GDS system on your behalf). If something looks wrong with your order before you download it, email [email protected] — we’ll either fix it or refund you, your choice.
