First, I am not a dude, second no I do not think you are Sloan. If you are who you say you are then don't worry, right? Moving on as this thread is about RT for airline travel.

I think the system All Airlines have access to and that they can confirm “e-confirmations” is strictly for airlines tickets worldwide NOT a local independent bus company ,

But am on your side , I think you have a great idea and the only way it won’t work it’s cause the airlines will NOT accept it , even thought you are 100% correct and the airlines it’s breaking in my opinion the rules by not accepting it …

So you saying it has work for you ? This work in the past ?

Good thinking
Used to be "Good input". LOL

So according to this FB poster, all airline agents do is check bags...any more than that makes them idiots. Heaven forbid they do their job, even if it inconveniences you.

Idiots could be. I was flying to the DR from Las Vegas on Copa. Girl asks for a return ticket. I show here a Dominican Passport that had expired. She says it expired. I said did my citizenship expire along with it. Then I gave here my Cedula. She had no clue what it was. So she showed it to the agent alongside her and the other girl said that is all he needs. Idiot? You tell me...........

What about making a round trip from the DR like if you're visiting the USA, Canada, or Europe? How do they handle that?
Lets say you fly RT from the DR to the US. Going to the US of course is no problem. But returning to the DR from the US without Citizenship or Residency requires another ticket that returns you to the US. Of course the site I recommended for about $17 US will take care of that, or a refundable ticket.......

In my days before having a cedula, I did that very thing a number of times without issue. However, I'm pretty sure it was luck rather than correct procedure. Without residency, it would make sense that I would have still needed a return ticket to somewhere from the DR.

As your DR passport was expired, it wasn't valid for travel and thus the agent questioned it. At least your situation was easily taken care of with your cedula.

The post in #83 said that person used a site (not sure if the same you recommended) and AA did not accept it because it only gave a confirmation number, Just for awareness for others....I have no experience with those sites

This was NOT the passport I was traveling on. Just to show I was a citizen. Do you think you can possess an expired passport and not be a citizen of that Country. How did I get it in the first place?............

If you have Residency, rather than citizenship, use the Residency card. The person in the Facebook post above said they were in the process of obtaining citizenship so I would assume they should have a temporary visa in their passport, like you have when you first apply for Residency.

When you appply for DR citizenship you do not get anything in any passport about that. Your assumption on that is incorrect, no such visa process is used.

They would have had legal residency and a card to prove that very simply.
