A dummy ticket, also known as a dummy flight reservation or flight itinerary, is a simulated or temporary flight booking that is created for the purpose of visa applications, visa interviews, or other travel-related requirements. It is not a real or confirmed ticket and does not represent an actual booking on an airline.
Dummy tickets are often used when proof of onward travel or a flight itinerary is required as part of a visa application process. They provide a temporary flight reservation that can be presented as supporting documentation to show travel plans without the need to purchase an actual ticket. Dummy tickets typically contain the relevant flight details, including departure and arrival airports, dates, and times, but they are not valid for travel and cannot be used to board an aircraft.
It’s important to note that not all visa applications or immigration authorities accept dummy tickets as valid proof of travel plans. Some may require a confirmed ticket or proof of purchase before granting a visa. It is recommended to check the specific requirements of the country or embassy where you are applying for a visa to ensure you provide the appropriate documentation.
