When applying for a Schengen visa, you can legitimately use a "dummy ticket" or temporary flight reservation—a document that shows a confirmed ticket reservation without actual payment—to demonstrate your trip plans. All of the information needed to apply for a visa is included in dummy tickets, including the date, the itinerary, the passenger's contact and personal information, and an active PNR. As a result, you can use one of these tickets to apply for a visa for as little as 800 or $10.
