How do you know my flight ticket is confirmed or not?

You can use your flight PNR to check air ticket confirmation, the origin and destination information, travellers' names, flight number, and the aircraft's departure and arrival timings. You can also look up the status of your flight using the PNR. Knowing the status can help you plan your travel.



To check if your flight ticket is confirmed, you can use the following methods:

1. Check Your Email

  • After booking, you should receive a confirmation email from the airline or travel agency. Look for:
    • Booking Reference/PNR (Passenger Name Record) – a 6-character alphanumeric code.
    • E-ticket Number – a 13-digit number (starting with the airline code, e.g., 014 for Lufthansa).
  • If you have these, your ticket is likely confirmed.

2. Verify on the Airline’s Website/App

  • Go to the airline’s official website or app.
  • Use your PNR/booking reference and last name to check your booking status.
  • Look for terms like “Confirmed,” “Ticketed,” or “E-ticket issued” (not just “Booked”).

3. Check Your Bank Statement

  • If payment was deducted successfully, it’s a good sign. However, payment alone doesn’t guarantee confirmation—always verify with the airline.

4. Contact the Airline or Travel Agent

  • Call the airline’s customer service with your PNR and last name to confirm.
  • If booked through a travel agency (e.g., Expedia, Booking.com), contact them for updates.

5. Use Online Verification Tools

  • Some airlines offer “Manage My Booking” or “Verify Ticket” features on their websites.
  • You can also use third-party tools like Amadeus CheckMyTrip or
