What is on the document
Every order includes all 9 of the following.
- A booking reference (PNR) — the six-character code the reservation is held under in the airline system, which you can look up yourself on the carrier’s own Manage Booking page before the file goes in.
- The operating airline and the flight number for every leg, written the way the carrier publishes them.
- Three-letter IATA codes for each departure and arrival airport, with the full airport and city names spelled out beside them.
- Departure and arrival dates and local times for each leg, so the travel dates on your application form and the ones on the document are the same dates.
- The passenger name in surname / given-name order, as it appears on the passport — the spelling you enter is the spelling that is booked.
- A separate name line for each traveller, for family or group applications submitted together.
- The shape of the journey as you describe it: one-way, return, or multi-city with each sector listed in order.
- The date the itinerary was issued and the date the reservation is held until, so you can see at a glance whether it is still live on your appointment date.
- A clean PDF laid out like an airline booking confirmation — printable for a paper file, and small enough to attach to an online application portal.
Read the itinerary back against your application form
The problem with a document in a visa file is rarely the document on its own — it is a detail on it that says something different from the form beside it. A date written the American way round, a surname without its hyphen, the second airport of a two-airport city. The booking reference is what lets you pull up the airline’s own copy of the reservation and check it line by line while a correction is still an email.

Held until
If anything does not match, tell us before you submit — reissuing is far easier than explaining a discrepancy after the file has gone in.
What to expect when you look it up
Ignore the money. A held reservation usually shows no fare, and some carriers label it “not ticketed” — neither is a defect and neither is what you came to check. You are here for the fields: passenger name, airports, dates, flight numbers. If one of those does not match the form, tell us and we will reissue, which is far easier now than after the file has been handed over.
Does this satisfy what the checklist asks for?
That question is settled by the checklist, and checklists are not identical. Read the wording published by the post handling your application. Where it asks for a flight reservation, proof of travel arrangements, a travel itinerary or evidence of intended travel, a reservation is the document being described and this is one. Where a checklist asks in terms for a ticket that has been purchased and paid in full, that is a different document, and the checklist is what to follow.
The reservation wording is common for a reason. Guidance published by a good number of consulates and visa centres tells applicants not to buy tickets before a decision is issued, and some ask applicants specifically not to. The point of the requirement is a coherent, dated travel plan the rest of the file can be read against — not proof that money has been spent. An applicant who buys a non-refundable fare early carries a loss that the requirement never asked them to take on.
What we can tell you is what the document is: a genuine reservation held in a live airline system, in the passenger name you give us, under a booking reference you or anyone else can retrieve on the airline’s own site. What we cannot tell you is how any particular application will be assessed. Completeness is judged by the post against its own list, and nobody selling this document is in that room.
That is also why our terms do not offer a refund on a refused application. A decision is not ours to influence, and we are not going to charge you for a promise about one. What we will do is make sure the document itself is right, and reissue it if a detail needs correcting before you submit.
What we are accountable for
- A real booking reference you can look up yourself
- Airline, flight numbers and IATA codes for every leg
- Passenger names in passport order, as you supplied them
- Reissued if a detail needs correcting before you submit
What no provider controls
- How the post handling your file assesses your application
- Which documents a particular checklist asks for
- Anyone quoting a rate or a guarantee on an application is pricing a decision they do not make
Requirements are set by the post handling your file. Work from the checklist it publishes, and match the document to the wording you find there.
What is a flight itinerary for a visa application?
A flight itinerary for a visa application is a dated flight reservation — route, flights, times and passenger name — held in an airline system under a real booking reference, submitted as evidence of intended travel. It records the journey you plan to make rather than a ticket you have paid for.
You do not have to take our word for it — check the booking yourself on the airline’s own site before you fly.
The distinction between a reservation and a ticket is one airlines draw every day. A reservation holds the seats and returns a booking reference; ticketing is the separate step where the fare is paid and the reservation becomes a flown-on ticket. An itinerary issued at the reservation stage carries the same flight details as a ticket would, and is issued with a validity period instead of a fare — which is why it is worth ordering near the end of the assembly process, once your appointment date is fixed.
What the document has to do is agree with everything else in the file. The dates on it are read against the dates on your application form, the passenger name against your passport page, and the destination against the address on your accommodation booking and the days set out in your travel plan. A reviewer working down a list is looking for the same trip described the same way each time, so the itinerary is worth proofreading against the form before either goes in.
Checklists name the requirement differently from post to post: proof of travel arrangements, flight reservation, travel itinerary, evidence of transport, or proof of onward travel. The wording that matters is the wording published by the post handling your own application, so work from that list rather than a general one and match the document to the phrase you actually find there.

Why choose ReservationPoints?
Every field a checklist names
Checklists tend to ask for the same handful of things: the route, the dates, the flights, the passenger name and a reference the itinerary can be identified by. The document carries all of them on one page, in the order a reviewer reads them, so there is no gap for you to explain in a covering note.
Something you can check before you submit
The reservation sits in a live airline system under a real booking reference, which means you can pull it up on the airline’s website and read it back against your application form. Wrong airport, transposed date, misspelt surname — you find it while there is still time to correct it, rather than after the file has been handed over.
Built to sit alongside the rest of the file
A visa file is judged as a whole, and the parts have to agree with one another. We match the itinerary to the dates you are using on your accommodation booking, your day-by-day travel plan and your cover letter, so the same trip is described the same way in every document.
Common questions
It is the document that sets out the journey you intend to make — route, dates, flights and passenger name — held in an airline system under a booking reference. Checklists list it under various names: proof of travel arrangements, flight reservation, travel itinerary, or evidence of transport. It records intended travel and is not a purchased ticket, which is why it is issued with a validity period rather than a fare paid in full.
Read the wording on your own checklist first. Many consulates ask for evidence of intended travel arrangements rather than a paid ticket, and a number of them state in their published guidance that applicants should not buy tickets before a decision is issued. Where the requirement is phrased as a reservation, a booking, or an itinerary, a flight itinerary with a live booking reference is the document being described. If your checklist unambiguously asks for a paid ticket, follow the checklist.
The booking reference (PNR), the operating airline and flight number for each leg, the departure and arrival airports as three-letter IATA codes with their full names, the dates and local times of each leg, the passenger name in passport order, the issue date and the date the reservation is held until. Multi-city trips list every sector in sequence, and each traveller on a group booking gets their own name line.
Last, or nearly last. The reservation is held for a matter of days rather than months, which makes this the one line on a visa checklist with an order of operations attached to it: gather the passport copies, the photographs, the insurance and the financial evidence first, settle your appointment or upload date, and order the itinerary against that date so the booking reference is still live when the file is read. Working the list straight down from the top is the commonest reason an applicant ends up ordering twice. If the appointment then moves, tell us — a fresh itinerary against the new date is straightforward.
Schengen checklists commonly list proof of transport or travel arrangements among the supporting documents, usually next to proof of accommodation and travel medical insurance. The exact list is set by the country you are applying to and by the mission or visa centre handling your file, so work from the checklist that mission publishes rather than a general one. If your trip covers more than one Schengen country, a multi-city itinerary can show each sector in order.
The flight itinerary is one line on a longer list. Alongside it, checklists typically ask for proof of accommodation for the whole stay, a day-by-day travel plan or trip outline, a cover letter explaining the purpose and dates of the visit, plus your passport, photographs, travel medical insurance and financial evidence. We produce the first three — hotel reservation, travel plan and cover letter — and they can be ordered together as a bundle so the names, dates and destinations match across every document without you having to reconcile them by hand.
