Contact us for the exact OTB service fees for your travel.
How do I check the status of my Ok to Board?
For OTB status confirmation, you can try completing your airline’s web check-in. If web check-in is successful, it usually means your Ok to Board has already been approved in the airline’s system.If you’re already at the airport, the airline check-in counter can verify your OTB status directly in their system. It is recommended to always carry your original passport, visa, and flight ticket for verification at the airport.
I am at the airport, and my Ok to Board is not showing. What should I do?
If your Ok to Board (OTB) is not reflecting at the airport, don’t panic. Get in touch with the airline staff. They can recheck your status in their internal system. If the airline still cannot see the update, contact Visa2Fly support immediately with your booking reference. Our team coordinates with the airline on priority to push the OTB update.Make sure you’re carrying your original passport, visa, and flight ticket for verification.
How long before my flight should my Ok to Board be updated?
Most airlines update your Ok to Board 24 hours before departure, but some may update it earlier depending on workload and verification time. To avoid last-minute issues, apply for OTB at least 3–5 days before your flight. Visa2Fly also offers express processing for urgent travel.
Does the airline update Ok to Board on weekends or holidays?
Airline OTB teams may work with reduced staff during weekends and public holidays, which can sometimes delay updates. If you’re travelling around these dates, it’s best to apply on weekdays to avoid last-minute problems.
Can I update Ok to Board after reaching the airport?
No, Ok to Board (OTB) cannot be processed at the airport. Airlines require OTB to be approved before you arrive for check-in, and last-minute updates are not supported at airport counters. To avoid delays or the risk of being denied boarding, you should get your OTB processed at least 24 hours before your flight.
