How TicketFares works
Choose a reservation or an itinerary plan, enter your flights and get a clear PDF.
In short: you choose reservation or itinerary, enter your flights and passenger names, pay a small fee and receive a PDF by email.
Two documents, two jobs
The reservation is a real booking with the airline and has a booking reference (PNR) that you can check on the airline website. The itinerary plan is a flight-by-flight document made from real schedules. It has no booking reference because nothing is booked.
Which one to choose
Match the document to the request. If a visa centre asks for a booking reference, order the reservation. If it asks for a travel plan, the itinerary plan may be enough. When in doubt, read the official checklist or ask the centre.
The steps
- Choose a product and your trip. Pick the Verifiable Flight Reservation or the Flight Itinerary, then enter one-way, return or multi-city flights and your dates.
- Enter passenger details. Names must match each passport exactly. Passport number, expiry date and nationality are asked only when shown on the form.
- Pay our service fee. Payment is on Stripe's secure page. We never see your card details. You can choose to receive the PDF now or on a later date.
- We book it. After payment, our system tries to create the booking with the airline. If it cannot, our team books it for you and checks the reference before sending it. If that is not possible you are refunded in full.
- Get your PDF. It is emailed to you and available on your private reservation page.
- Verify it. On the airline's website, open "Manage booking" and enter the booking reference and the passenger's family name.
Which one is right for me?
- Verifiable Flight Reservation. A real airline booking with a booking reference (PNR) you can look up on the airline website. Choose this when you are asked for a booking reference.
- Flight Itinerary. A neat plan built from real airline schedules. It is not a booking and has no reference. Choose this when only a travel plan is asked for.
- Not sure? Ask the embassy, visa centre or airline exactly what they want to see, then pick the matching one.
Before you order, have ready
- Each traveller's name exactly as on the passport.
- Your cities and travel dates (one-way, return or multi-city).
- An email address you can open: your PDF is sent there.
Things to know before you order
- A reservation is not a paid ticket and cannot be used for travel.
- It expires at the airline's deadline, shown before you pay and printed on the PDF. After that it disappears from the airline's website. This is normal.
- Some embassies and visa centres accept reservations; others require a paid ticket. Check their instructions first. We cannot guarantee acceptance or visa approval.
- Submit the PDF exactly as received. Never edit it.
- If you need to buy the real ticket later, do it directly with the airline before the reservation expires.
