Is a travel itinerary enough for the Schengen Visa?
Travel itineraries (flight reservations) are standard supporting documents for Schengen Visa applications. Consulates look for a document showing your planned travel dates, route, and a booking reference. Our PDFs include all required fields.
Should I get the Flight only or the Flight + Hotel bundle?
For Schengen Visa applications, we strongly recommend the Flight + Hotel Bundle ($9.99). Most consulates require both a flight itinerary and hotel confirmation as part of the standard document checklist.
