Flight Itinerary for Your US Visa Application

US consulates officially ask for a flight itinerary or reservation — not a paid ticket. Get a verifiable itinerary with a real booking reference in 60 seconds, for $7, without risking your money on a refundable fare.

Why visa applicants don't buy the real ticket

Buying a full fare before your B1/B2 interview is approved means risking hundreds or thousands of dollars on a cancellation. The US Department of State explicitly states you should not purchase a ticket until the visa is issued. What officers actually want to see at your DS-160 interview is proof of your travel plans — an itinerary with route, dates and passenger name.

1 Fill in the form: route (for example Frankfurt → New York), travel date and passenger name as in your passport.
2 Pay $7 — the verification fee, not a ticket price.
3 Your flight itinerary arrives by email in about 60 seconds, with a booking reference in the standard airline format (PNR).
4 Print it or show the PDF at your interview — it matches what consular officers expect to see.

What consular officers expect

A US visa itinerary is not a boarding pass and doesn't need to be — officers know applicants must not buy tickets before approval. What matters: a real route with real dates, the passenger name exactly as in your passport, and a reservation reference that looks like a genuine airline booking. That's exactly what we generate — and we can reissue it with new dates if your interview moves.

Frequently asked questions

Is a flight reservation required for a US B1/B2 visa?

No visa applicant is required to buy a ticket, but consulates recommend presenting travel plans — an itinerary or reservation. It supports your application and interview answers.

Will the embassy or consulate verify the booking?

Officers generally do not confirm reservations before a visa is issued — that's precisely why they ask for an itinerary instead of a ticket. If your visa is approved, book the real flight.

How long is the itinerary valid?

The reservation carries a travel date you choose. If your interview is postponed, write to us and we reissue the itinerary with the new date.

Is this allowed? Am I doing anything wrong?

Yes, it's allowed — presenting a reservation instead of a purchased ticket is the standard, officially recommended way to document travel plans for a US visa interview.

Do I get a PDF?

You receive a clean email itinerary with your PNR — printable or forwardable as-is.

What does it cost?

$7. One payment, one itinerary, free reissue if your interview date changes.
