EES Question 2026

Now with the full roll out of the EES throughout the Schengen area, upon registering on arrival as a non-EU citizen, I am aware they ask questions regarding your reason for travel/onward travel/ medical insurance.

My question is, if you haven't got onward travel booked will you be denied entry? Sometimes people visiting or travelling through Europe will book their flight one way as they are being spontaneous and are unsure when they will move onto their next location. So what if someone entering schengen area hasnt got onward flights booked? or they decide to leave early or later then originally expected.
