Before ordering an itinerary, ask GVCW or the Greek consulate whether a confirmed reservation with PNR is sufficient for your application or whether you need an issued ticket. The checklist uses both "confirmed round trip air-ticket" and "reservation", so do not assume a reservation will meet every request. Include your name, flight dates and numbers, and your full trip plan. If you live in the Western, Northern or Eastern Cape, apply through Cape Town. Check the centre links for the route covering your address and any service notices before travelling.

Recommended Flight Itinerary Type

Based on the guidance linked above, we recommend considering a flight reservation with a PNR to show your planned travel. Tripenger’s PNR package includes an airline booking reference, subject to airline availability.

Flight itinerary and application guidance

Before ordering an itinerary, ask GVCW or the Greek consulate whether a confirmed reservation with PNR is sufficient for your application or whether you need an issued ticket. The checklist uses both "confirmed round trip air-ticket" and "reservation", so do not assume a reservation will meet every request. Include your name, flight dates and numbers, and your full trip plan. If you live in the Western, Northern or Eastern Cape, apply through Cape Town. Check the centre links for the route covering your address and any service notices before travelling.

A PNR is a booking reference for a flight reservation. It does not by itself mean that a flight ticket has been issued. A ticketed itinerary includes a ticket number.

Frequently asked questions

Is a PNR reservation enough for a Greek visa application?
Confirm this with GVCW or the responsible Greek consulate before ordering. The South Africa checklist uses both confirmed round-trip air-ticket and reservation wording. A PNR reservation is therefore a conditional recommendation, and you may need different evidence if the consulate requests an issued ticket.
What should my Greek visa flight itinerary include?
Include your name, travel dates, flight numbers and the full trip plan. Ask the visa centre whether the flight document must be an issued ticket or whether a confirmed reservation is sufficient for your case.
Which Greek visa centre should I use in South Africa?
Residents of the Western, Northern and Eastern Cape apply through Cape Town. GVCW also has centres in Johannesburg and Durban. Check the route for your home address and any current service notices before travelling.
What is the difference between a schedule, a PNR reservation and a ticketed itinerary?
A schedule shows your planned flights without a PNR. A PNR reservation includes a booking reference but does not by itself mean a ticket has been issued. A ticketed itinerary includes an issued ticket number. Choose the document that meets the instructions for your application.
Does a flight itinerary guarantee visa approval?
No. A flight itinerary is one part of your supporting evidence. The visa authority assesses your full application and makes the decision.
