A dummy ticket is a flight reservation that is used to apply for visas and/or show at the airport as proof of return ticket. It is not a fake ticket, but rather a document that shows a flight itinerary or flight reservation for visa purposes. The authenticity of a dummy ticket can be verified online on the airlines website. Dummy tickets are generally valid for 2-3 weeks, depending on the website and airline provider, and the price usually ranges from $15 to $50. Some agents charge extra for rush or express service. The main use of a dummy ticket is to apply for visas, as most embassies ask for a flight reservation during the visa application process. Dummy tickets are also used as proof of return to show at immigration while traveling, and for other purposes such as expedited passport renewal, showing to company HR/Manager for leave and other purposes, exit visa procedures in many GCC countries, and renting a car. It is not recommended to use a dummy ticket generator to create a fake dummy air ticket and use it for the visa application. Instead, there are many options available to get a flight reservation even without paying the full price, such as using VisaReservation or other similar services.
