Having a flight itinerary is just the first step — you also need to submit it correctly. Here’s how to present your flight itinerary for maximum impact on your visa application.
Step-by-Step Process
1. Print a clear PDF copy
Most embassies prefer printed documents. Print your flight itinerary PDF on clean A4 paper.
2. Place it with your travel documents
Include the flight itinerary alongside your passport, application form, hotel bookings, and travel insurance.
3. Ensure date consistency
Your flight dates must match the dates on your visa application form, hotel bookings, and travel insurance.
4. Keep a digital backup
Save the PDF on your phone or email in case the embassy asks for a digital copy or you need to reference the PNR code.
Pro Tips
- Submit the reservation as a full PDF page — not a cropped screenshot
- Highlight or tab the page in your document folder for easy access
- If applying online, upload the PDF in the flight/travel documents section
- Some embassies may review the PNR code — ensure yours is active
