Air China e-ticket [how do I know I have one, not just an itinerary?]
This is probably a very silly question but I need to ask it.
What does an Air China e-ticket look like? I've received a Travel Itinerary/Receipt with a ticket number on and all my details - is this my e-ticket. Sorry if this appears to be a silly question but all e-tickets I've received in the past have had e-ticket printed somewhere on it. Thanks for your help. |

I'm not sure I follow your question completely. Are you suggesting that you received an eTicket in the mail? If so I think you have paper tickets. You'll need to present those at checkin and boarding if so. |
I'm sorry I didn't make my point clearly.
I have booked my flight and reserved my seat and received a confirmation via email. The email I received had as its subject "Air China Itinerary Email" and the heading at the top of the email is "Travel/Itinerary Receipt". The main body of the email lists my details, flight details and a ticket number. Most of my experience of e-tickets is with Emirates who always send it as an attachment labelled e-ticket - I'm assuming that what Air China have sent me is my e-ticket but was just looking to clarify. Many thanks. |

You should be all set. The ticket number is your e-ticket.
Surprised you have a seat assignment - must be because you booked from an international site....I'm always getting to the airport early to avoid getting stuck in a middle seat |
If you see a 13-digit number starting with "999", that's an Air china e-ticket.

Etickets are 100% virtual. In the US we simply get an itinerary emailed to us, but no actual ticket.
Just keep your ticket number & PNR # handy in case they can't find it. I've never had a problem with airlines not finding my reservation. In the US I have... |
Thanks for the assistance folks - much appreciated.

I just bought an Air China ticket through the AMEX website; it didn’t have seat assignments listed, but I called the Air China’s US support at 1-800-882-8122 and gave them the ticket number that started with 999 and they were able to give me seat assignments 3 months out from my departure date. She also said to just use the printed itinerary from AMEX for any documentation for the airport.
