Can You Get a Dummy Ticket for Multiple Passengers?
Yes — and it is one of the most useful features of EchoFlights. When a family or group applies for visas together, all passengers can be included on the same flight itinerary document. This mirrors how a real group airline booking works: everyone travelling together appears on the same booking confirmation with their individual names, passport numbers, and travel details.
A single EchoFlights booking covers all passengers in your family or group application. There is no need to generate separate documents for each person, and the flat fee covers the entire group.
Why Families Apply for Visas Together
Family group visa applications are extremely common from Bangladesh. Couples travelling together, parents with children, and extended family groups all need to submit visa applications simultaneously. Applying together means:
- Shared flight itineraries showing everyone on the same flights
- Consistent travel dates across all applications
- Simpler processing for embassies (they can review the family as a unit)
- Stronger case for family applicants — travelling as a family demonstrates genuine tourist intent

How Does a Multi-Passenger Dummy Ticket Work?
When you generate a dummy ticket on EchoFlights for multiple passengers, the resulting PDF shows all travellers on the same document. The itinerary lists each passenger's full name as it appears on their passport, alongside the shared flight details — flight number, route, departure time, arrival time, and travel dates.
This is the same format used by airlines for group bookings, and it is what embassies expect to see for family visa applications.
What Information Is Required for Each Passenger?
For each person included in your group booking, you will need to provide:
- Full name — exactly as printed in their passport (including middle names if applicable)
- Date of birth
- Passport number
- Passport expiry date
- Nationality
Getting these details exactly right is critical. Embassy officers cross-check the names on your flight itinerary with the passport names on your application. Even a minor spelling difference can cause problems.
Pricing for Group and Family Bookings
EchoFlights charges a flat rate of 100 Taka via bKash for a flight itinerary regardless of the number of passengers. Whether you are generating a document for one person or an entire family of five, the cost remains the same.
This makes EchoFlights significantly more cost-effective than traditional travel agents, who often charge per-person fees for visa itinerary documents — 500 to 1,000 Taka per person at many agencies in Dhaka.
Common Group Travel Scenarios
Husband and Wife Applying Together
Couples applying for Schengen, UK, or other visas together should be listed on the same flight itinerary. Including both names on a single document demonstrates a joint travel plan, which supports the legitimacy of the application for both applicants.
Parents and Children
Family visa applications including children are among the most common group applications from Bangladesh. When children are included, their names must appear on the family flight itinerary exactly as they appear in their own passports or, for very young children, their travel documents.
Note that some embassies require separate application files for each family member even when travelling together — the flight itinerary is shared, but each person has their own application form and financial documents.
Extended Family Groups
Applications for larger family groups — grandparents, adult siblings — work the same way. All names can be included on a single EchoFlights itinerary at the same flat rate of 100 Taka.
Tour Groups and Corporate Travel
Groups applying for business or tour visas together can also use a single EchoFlights itinerary. For corporate travel, the itinerary would typically show all employees on the same route — for example, a delegation travelling from Dhaka to a conference in Frankfurt.
Should Each Applicant Have a Separate Dummy Ticket?
For most visa applications, a single shared itinerary is the correct and expected format for group or family travel. However, there are situations where individual documents may be preferred:
- When family members are travelling on different dates or routes
- When one family member is applying separately due to a different visa category
- When a specific embassy requests individual itineraries for each applicant
If in doubt, check the specific requirements for the embassy you are applying to. In most cases, a shared family itinerary is perfectly acceptable and is what the embassy expects to see.
Getting Your Group Dummy Ticket From EchoFlights
The process is simple. Visit the EchoFlights booking page at /for-single-bookings to understand the process, then provide the details for all passengers when generating your itinerary. You will receive your PDF document instantly after completing your bKash payment. The document will list all passengers on the same professional flight itinerary, ready to include in your visa application.
Tips for Group Visa Applications
- Double-check all names: For group applications, the risk of a name mismatch multiplies. Verify every name against every passport before generating the itinerary.
- Use the same travel dates for all applicants: Inconsistent travel dates across a family application raise questions. Everyone on the same booking should show the same departure and return dates.
- Prepare separate financial documents: While the flight itinerary is shared, each adult applicant typically needs their own bank statements and financial proof.
- Check child-specific requirements: Some embassies have additional requirements for children travelling with parents, including birth certificates and custody documentation for solo-parent travel.
