E-ticket silly question
If you upgrade your flight and get a new e-ticket do you need to print that and bring it or is the old one good enough since it in the system?
sorry maybe silly question.

No but it will do no harm especially if there is a query.
I too have not been asked in years for the printout

I always keep a pdf copy of the e-ticket on my iPhone just in case I need to show anyone.

Yeah between the EK app and your e-mail on your phone there's really no need.

E-tickets are purely digital. All you can print is a receipt for an e-ticket and that does nothing for you. Certainly not in the past 5 years. The record will always be what is in the database no matter what you print out and try to show to someone. Just as an example, you could print your e-ticket receipt and then cancel your e-ticket. You would still have the receipt, but it proves nothing.
