What would a Airplane Flight Confirmation E-mail look like?

Asked by bstar3 (182points) April 26th, 2010

I’m sure many people on here had a flight somewhere. You know when you’r on the website…. lets say… expedia.com for an example. And, once you book your flight. You get a confirmation email for that flight you just booked.

What would the e-mail say? Details as in my name? The flight info? Etc….. Please give me an example if you can too.

It would look something like this.
Obviously all that stuff won’t be blacked out though.

This is where http://tripit.com/ comes in handy. Forward any flight confirmation email (from any airline or booking site) to plans@tripit.com and they’ll parse all of the info and make it pretty and easy to access (you don’t need to register an account beforehand and they have an iPhone app that’s handy). That way I never have to look at flight confirmation emails.

@timtrueman Thanks but I just need this info.

Would CheapTickets say Expedia instead? also, (Theres a lot thats blacked out) Can someone help and tell me what the Record Locator, Ticket Number, US Airways #, mean?

They all look different. Here is a crappy version of an Expedia Confirmation Email.

Yes it would say “Expedia” and not “CheapTickets”
Record locator is just what it says. The number will help you locate the records of your booking.
Ticket Number is your airline ticket number.
US Airways Number is just the number of the Flight. “US Airways” is just the airline I used, so for you it’ll say whatever airline you are using.
