E-ticket receipts can be tricky to decipher. With the tiny print and travel industry mumbo-jumbo most people just leave it be.

That said, there’s some very basic and important information there, specifically: date and city info, your airline and flight numbers and also the electronic ticket number which is important to have if you’re looking to retroactively access your file (to add frequent flyer info or to attempt a post-date refund, for example).

When AirTreks sends off your ticket email, included are instructions on how to read a standard eticket. For those instructions click here or on image below.
