Route receipt electronic ticket– this is a document confirming the purchase of an electronic ticket. This is not an electronic ticket, but a kind of reminder for the passenger about his flight, time and places of departure and arrival. How to obtain an itinerary receipt, in what cases and why it is needed, we will describe below.

What is an electronic ticket itinerary receipt?

So, you purchased an e-ticket and paid for it. Immediately after paying for your ticket online, the airline should send you an email e-ticket itinerary receipt(sometimes called a “route receipt” or “route receipt”; these are all identical names for the same document). IN English version this document called "itinerary receipt".

The route receipt must contain the following information:

  • Passenger's full name.
  • Route data.
  • Payment information.
  • Other information.

That is, using this document you can always verify all the data about the intended flight.

Why and when do you need an e-ticket itinerary receipt?

By general rule, it is not at all necessary to have an itinerary receipt with you during the trip. But let's look at situations where it might really be needed.
An itinerary receipt may be asked upon entering the airport as confirmation that you are indeed departing soon.

If you are flying abroad, it is better to have your itinerary receipt with you, as it will confirm that you are following the route and have a return ticket; you are not going to stay in this country for long.
In addition, the itinerary receipt of the electronic ticket can be a “confirmation basis” for obtaining a visa, in particular at the embassy.

For example, in many foreign countries there is a certain gradation of visas, depending on the length of stay in the country. If you show an itinerary receipt that contains information about the return flight (that is, confirm that you have purchased a return ticket), then at the airport you will be issued the appropriate visa.

In addition, the itinerary receipt can serve as confirmation of your flight when submitting reporting documents to the accounting department at your enterprise. Attach your boarding pass, fill out the required report form and wait for payments. But here you need to take into account a nuance: your itinerary receipt may be on foreign language(if you are flying from another country and booked your ticket there). In this case, your organization may require a certified translation of the document to pay for the flights.

The main advantage of an itinerary receipt is that even if you lose it, you can always print a new one from your mailbox. If you still don’t have the opportunity to print your receipt again, then don’t worry - information that you bought an e-ticket is in the airline’s database, so upon presentation of your passport you will be given a boarding pass.

What does an e-ticket itinerary receipt look like?

The itinerary receipt is usually printed on an A4 sheet and contains the following columns:

  • Number of ticket.
  • Booking code.
  • Passenger's full name.
  • Flight number, airline name, baggage information.
  • Departure data.
  • Place of arrival.

Using an itinerary receipt, you can even reserve a specific seat on the plane, and when you check in for your flight, you will be given a boarding pass for that exact seat.

To do this, you need to go to the airline’s website and, after entering all the necessary data, select a seat. Typically, airlines provide a limited number of seats to choose from for online booking; For some places you will have to pay extra.

The very last part of the electronic ticket itinerary receipt is information about the payment made for the ticket. As a rule, these lines indicate data on the tariff, taxes and various fees.
Let's explain a little what is what.

Rate– this is the full cost of the electronic air ticket. Based on this cost, fines or fees will be paid when returning/exchanging a ticket.

Dachshund– various airport or airline taxes and fees. An example of a tax is a fuel surcharge. Part of the fees can be refunded if the ticket is returned; but most of them are fixed amounts that are not refundable.

Fees- These are the amounts that the airline can charge for various additional services.

Mistakes from which no one is immune

When preparing absolutely any document, errors are possible. The itinerary receipt is no exception.

So, if you entered your full name incorrectly (not in accordance with your passport), what to do and what are the consequences?

First, try not to panic. As a rule, problems do not arise on domestic flights. Even if you entered your last name incorrectly, when you check it with your passport, you will still be given a boarding pass.

The situation is different if you bought an electronic ticket for an international flight. In this case, you must contact the airline or agency where you purchased the ticket and inform them of the error. Otherwise, due to discrepancies between the data and your identification document, you may not be allowed to board the flight.

And further! Let's not confuse two different documents: an itinerary receipt is not an electronic ticket; this is just a document confirming the purchase of a ticket online and containing information about the flight.
The itinerary receipt is sent to your email address, and you can print it out at any time, and the electronic ticket is stored in the airline’s database and you are given a boarding pass upon check-in for your flight. That is, you will not get on board the plane with just an itinerary receipt!

Even though it is not necessary to carry an itinerary receipt with you, it may still be required at the airport. Moreover, in the event of a failure in the air carrier’s system or other problems when checking in for a flight, it is the itinerary receipt that will be the document confirming the fact that you purchased an electronic ticket. So don’t be lazy and print it out before your trip.
