Proof of onward travel · issued worldwide
Embassies and check in agents do not want screenshots. They want a booking they can look up on the airline's own website. Onward Ticket holds a genuine flight reservation in your name and emails you the PNR, usually within a minute, ready for your visa file or the check in desk.
How it works
The same hold a travel agent places before ticketing, created in the airline's reservation system, in your name.

After payment the reservation is placed in the airline's booking system and a six character PNR is generated. Not a template, not a mock up. Issue it now, or schedule it for about a day before you need it.
You get a PDF itinerary by email, usually within a minute. Check it yourself on the airline's Manage Booking page. So can the consulate or the agent at the desk.
Why Onward Ticket
Every PNR resolves on the airline's official site. If anyone checks, and they do, your reservation is there, live, in your name.
Automatic issuance, usually within a minute of payment. If a reservation cannot be placed automatically, a specialist places it by hand within 6 hours, or you are refunded in full.
One flat fee per leg per traveller. The reservation is a hold, not a purchased fare, so you never pay airline prices for a document requirement.
You pick from flights the airline can actually hold on your dates, including the regional routes embassies and check in agents ask about.
Add up to 9 travellers to a single PNR so your family's visa file tells one consistent story.
Names exactly as given, full flight details with times and terminals, baggage allowance, the live booking reference, and how to verify it, front and centre.
Start a booking
Pick a route and date. Next you choose a real, holdable flight, add traveller details, and pay. The airline's exact hold deadline is shown before payment.
Pricing
One price, no tiers. A leg is a direction of travel, so a one stop journey is still one leg. The airline fare itself is never charged to you: a reservation holds seats without ticketing them.

Questions, answered plainly
An onward ticket is a flight reservation that shows you plan to leave a country within your visa or permitted stay. Airlines commonly ask for one at check in, and consulates ask for a flight itinerary with visa applications. Onward Ticket issues a real reservation with a live PNR that anyone can look up on the airline's own website.
Yes. Every reservation is created in the airline's own booking system and comes with a live PNR. You, an embassy, or a border officer can look it up on the airline's official Manage Booking page using the PNR and passenger surname.
Pricing is $7 USD per leg per traveller. A one way reservation for one person is $7, a return is $14, and a family of four on a return journey is $56. The airline fare itself is never charged to you.
Until the airline's own hold deadline, which the airline sets per fare and route. You see the exact deadline before you pay. If you need the ticket for a later date, you can schedule issuance for about a day before, at no extra charge, so it is live when it is checked.
A held reservation is legitimate: it is the same instrument a travel agent places before ticketing, created in the airline's system with real seats. What is risky is a forged or edited PDF, because a booking reference can be verified in seconds. Whether a specific officer or embassy accepts a reservation is always their decision.
Reservations are issued automatically and delivered by email as a PDF, usually within a minute of payment. If you need the ticket for a later date, you can schedule it to be issued about a day before, at no extra charge, so it is live when checked.
If a reservation cannot be placed automatically, a specialist places it by hand within 6 hours, or the payment is refunded automatically and in full.
An onward ticket is a held reservation, not a ticket to travel on. Whether a specific embassy or officer accepts a reservation is always their decision.
