The ticket number on the boarding pass is 14 digits starting in 016. The mileage credit website will only allow 13 digits. Anyone know what's going on? It may have accepted it if I drop the last digit, but I'm not sure.

Thought we got past this sort of thing from the .bomb days, but I guess not.
Isn't the last digit the segment number?

If so, you should be able to drop it without issue.
