Devam bileti ve kukla bilet arasındaki fark nedir?
Direct answer
Devam bileti, canlı bir PNR koduyla gerçek, doğrulanabilir bir havayolu rezervasyonudur. Kukla bilet kapsamlı bir terimdir — bazen gerçek bir rezervasyon anlamına gelir, çoğu zaman arkasında herhangi bir rezervasyon bulunmayan uydurma bir PDF anlamına gelir. Gerçek rezervasyonlar doğrulamayı geçer; uydurma PDF'ler tespit edilebilir ve uçuşa kabul edilmeme veya vize reddine yol açabilir.
The GDS verification test
When an airline check-in agent (enforcing IATA Timatic) or a consular officer (reviewing a dossier under EU Visa Code Regulation (EC) No 810/2009 Annex II) inspects a flight itinerary, they can look up the 6-character Passenger Name Record (PNR) in the airline's Computer Reservation System or GDS. A real onward reservation returns an active HK (Confirmed Hold) status during its validity window (48 hours standard or 7 days paid add-on). A fabricated "dummy ticket" PDF has no GDS record behind it and fails lookup immediately.
Why the terminology overlaps
Many travellers and travel agents informally call any unpaid flight reservation a "dummy ticket." However, because low-cost PDF generators also use that phrase to sell static, unverified templates, you should always verify whether a provider issues a live GDS PNR. OnwardTicket.us issues only real, verifiable GDS reservations ($7 one-way, $11 return, $9/leg multi-city). See PNR Verification ProtocolveComparison Methodology.
Reservation vs. purchased ticket & limitations
Even a genuine onward reservation is a temporary held itinerary, not a purchased e-ticket (13-digit ticket number), and cannot be used to board an aircraft. PNR verification confirms the reservation record exists in the airline/GDS system while active; it does not guarantee boarding or visa/immigration approval.
