The word "dummy" covers two completely different things, and only one of them is legitimate. The distinction is worth understanding before you buy either.
A held reservation — legitimate
A real seat is blocked with the airline. The airline issues its own PNR. The booking exists in the airline’s system and anyone can verify it. Nothing is misrepresented: it is a reservation, it says so, and it expires. Travel agents have held seats this way for as long as there have been airlines.
An edited document — not legitimate
A PDF made to look like a booking, with a reference that resolves to nothing. Presenting one to a consulate is submitting a false document to a government, which in most jurisdictions carries consequences well beyond a refused visa — and it fails anyway, the moment someone checks the reference.
What we sell
The first. The seat is genuinely held, the PNR is the airline’s own, and the reservation is emailed only once that PNR exists. You can verify it yourself on the airline’s website before you submit anything.
The part nobody advertises
A reservation is not a purchased ticket, and some consulates require a purchased ticket. Where that is the requirement, no reservation satisfies it, and a page that tells you otherwise is selling you a refusal. Read the checklist for your mission before you book.
Used the way it is meant to be used — showing an intended itinerary while a visa is pending — a held reservation is ordinary travel practice, and it is honest about what it is.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal to submit a dummy ticket with a visa application?
A genuine held reservation is a real booking and submitting it is ordinary practice. A fabricated document with a reference that resolves to nothing is a false document, and that is a different matter entirely.
Can a visa be refused because of a dummy ticket?
It can, if the document cannot be verified or if the mission specifically required a paid ticket. A verifiable reservation submitted where a reservation is accepted is not itself a ground for refusal.
How do I know which kind I am buying?
Ask for the PNR and check it on the airline’s own Manage Booking page before you submit. If it does not return the itinerary, it is not a reservation.
Do embassies know it is a hold rather than a ticket?
Yes. It shows as a reservation, which is what most of them ask for at the application stage.

We had a group booking for 125 passengers from Bangalore to Rajkot and in return which consisted of both Air and Road transport arrangements. Airline Group had provided us 24/7 support to ensure the safety and security of our passengers during their journey. They were very accommodating when it comes to the travel bookings as well as in extending a helping hand during the time of crisis. We appreciate the concern & professionalism displayed by the team, especially, Mr. Yogesh & Ms. Nandini and wish them all good for the future endeavours.

We did a group booking for 53 passengers from Bangalore to Goa round trip. The company did an unbelievable job, right from negotiating and availing lowest airfares from GoAir.in and clearing all the doubts even the petty ones. Wishing God's blessings upon this company which has total dedication for a quality job and heartily wishing them for becoming more popular. Rev Fr David, Bangalore
