A flight schedule without a PNR may fit the alternative-document wording, but your receiving centre or decision maker can ask for a reservation. Review the current Kenya submission checklist for your own case.

Where to apply

Residents of Kenya submit a Netherlands Schengen application through VFS Global in Nairobi.

What to show for your flights

The Dutch tourism checklist accepts a reservation in your name or another document showing your travel plans. A schedule without a PNR may fit the latter, depending on the instructions applied to your application.

Choosing an itinerary

A schedule without a PNR shows proposed flights but cannot be looked up as an airline booking. It may fit a travel-itinerary option when the relevant centre permits it. If your document list asks for a reservation, use a genuine reservation instead.

Before you submit

Check the current VFS document list; supply a reservation if the centre asks for one.
