Applying for a student visa? You’ll likely need a flight itinerary as part of your application. Here’s how to get one tailored for student visa requirements.
Step-by-Step Process
1. Check your university and embassy requirements
Some embassies and universities require proof of travel plans for student visa applications, especially for the initial entry.
2. Determine your travel date
Base your flight on your university start date, orientation, or semester begin date. Arrive a few days early for settling in.
3. Generate your reservation
Create a student-friendly flight itinerary with a real PNR code for just $15.
4. Submit with your visa documents
Include the reservation alongside your acceptance letter, financial proof, and other student visa documents.
Pro Tips
- For student visas, a one-way ticket may be acceptable — check with your embassy
- Arrive at least a week before your course starts for orientation and settling in
- Some countries offer student discounts on flights — but only buy after visa approval
- Include your reservation as supplementary documentation even if not strictly required
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a round-trip reservation for a student visa?
It depends on the country. Some accept one-way reservations for student visas if combined with proof of enrollment. Others require round-trip.
Should the dates match my course dates?
Your arrival date should be shortly before your course starts. If including a return, set it after the course or semester ends.
Can I use this for a PhD or research visa?
Yes. Our reservations work for all academic visa types — undergraduate, masters, PhD, and research visas.
