looking for past reservation receipt....gotta pay
OK...am I reading this right?? I was looking for a past reservation and couldn't find a link but found this...........
per UA website:
To request a receipt 7 days after the last travel date, please request a past receipt.
To process receipt requests past seven days from the last travel date, there is a charge of $20 per receipt request per person

Dang, I feel that I should keep a calculator with me at the airport now or UA should provide one at the ticket counters so we can calculate fees (they'll charge for that usage too).

The charge (I believe waived for Plats previously) is for them to mail you a hardcopy of your receipt. You can view (and print) your old receipts for free. However looking at my own account, I see that while there were formerly records for a year old, now only since Dec 2011.

Sure doesn't sound like it's for hard copies to me.

You can pull up the itenerary (from the confirmation #, or from the past flights tab) and then click "View Receipt" for free

The continental.com Web site has said that for a long time, but I also have had no difficulty pulling up duplicate receipts for reservations that are several months old and still listed in 'past reservations' on continental.com.

Sigh. No charge for receipts - as they can be pulled from "past reservations". I do wish FTers would act more like the seasoned flyers they are versus the mindless "a change we don't like" mantra that I'm seeing.

On the old UA website it was conspicuously placed on same page when viewing current reservations...
