Ticket number

Where can I find my ticket number?ExpandThe ticket number can be found on your:
  • Confirmation email and receipt – look toward the end of the email under the 'Receipt' section
  • Receipt from Airport / City Ticket Office – look at the bottom in the middle of the ticket
  • Credit card statement
The ticket number is 13 characters long and also contains the airline code. The ticket number is the last 10 digits. Keep in mind there are separate ticket numbers for add-ons like seats, upgrades and bags.
Thanks.

Amazing stuff. This just shows how short sighted and rudderless AA is. This is a horrible solution that will lead to way more long term cost in terms of supportability and upgrades.

As long as the bean counters see IT as a purely a back end cost center , they'll never actually invest and tap into the real benefit it can provide.
