And you can easily book it in just a few clicks from anywhere in the world on the website of an intermediary or air carrier. Aeroflot is no exception here.

An electronic ticket is an entry in a database. Upon completion of the purchase, the tourist receives an email and Personal Area itinerary receipt in PDF format. It contains all the information about the upcoming flight and is a guarantee of concluding a contract of carriage between the passenger and the airline.
Important! The advantage of such a ticket is the ability to buy it in installments - with deferred payment.

From this moment the 24-hour countdown begins, during which time payment must be made at the office of the air carrier or intermediary, or online, otherwise the reservation will be canceled automatically.
Electronic tickets do not require paper media.
IN Lately appeared online services, allowing you to book plane tickets on credit from Aeroflot or another airline company through an intermediary credit institution. The reliability of such intermediaries has not been confirmed by any facts, so there is a high risk of running into scammers.

Aeroflot offers to check your airline ticket reservation using your reservation number on the official website www.aeroflot.ru (aeroflot.ru). You need to go to the “Online Services” page and select “Check Reservation”. Then fill in the “Reservation Code” and “Latin Last Name” fields and click “Find” (check).

Consultation with an airline employee
Another way to search is to call the airline's call center or consult with an employee at the sales office. A specialist can check an Aeroflot ticket using the ticket number and, if necessary, request other data.
Note! The electronic ticket number is indicated in the itinerary receipt and consists of 13 digits.
The advantage of consulting with an employee is that the airline client has the opportunity not only to find out whether there is a record of his reservation in the database, but also to clarify other issues regarding the upcoming flight.
Checking on the Saber system server
The global reservation system is a service for reserving various travel services. There are 4 large systems in the world, one of them is Saber (a partner of Aeroflot). For the passenger, this means that his ticket will be registered in both systems.
For convenience, on the main page of the portal you can change the language to Russian, the search is carried out in the same way, but the reservation code should be indicated not by the airline, but by Saber. Information about the code is contained in the itinerary receipt. If not, you can check with the airline.
Exchange or return of tickets
Immediately upon receipt of the itinerary receipt, the passenger must look through it and check the correct spelling of his full name, passport number, and also find whether there is a reservation code and ticket number. This is a mandatory step to verify the authenticity of the document.
Aeroflot tariff schedule
If at this stage you find errors in your last name or other personal data, you need to contact the seller.
If the fare allows, the passenger is given the right to exchange, return or reissue a ticket due to errors in it or the impossibility of completing the flight at the specified time. If the refusal of transportation is not for a forced reason, then you can return the ticket online in the “Online services” section, then “Exchange/refund of air ticket”.
Note! Voluntary refusal of transportation is impossible for non-refundable tickets Aeroflot airline purchased at Economy, Promo and Budget classes. They are marked in the itinerary receipt as NON REF.
Tickets for “Business” and “Comfort” tariffs are refundable. If you cancel your flight after the first flight on the route, your reservation for the remaining flights, including return flights, is automatically cancelled.
Aeroflot airline passengers can check their e-ticket on the airline’s website, the Saber system, or by calling the airline’s call center. To do this, you will need to provide the information from the itinerary receipt. Checking your Aeroflot air ticket reservation on the website is more convenient and faster than other methods.
Modern technologies have quietly entered almost all areas of people's lives. We cannot imagine our existence without many innovations, and some give us a strange feeling of misunderstanding. A similar feeling is encountered by those people who buy tickets online for the first time and are trying to figure out what to do with the document that comes to them by email after making the payment. Especially often, such inexperienced travelers are tormented by the question of where to find a PNR number in electronic ticket and how to use it to check your departure data. If you also had to deal with an itinerary receipt for the first time and you cannot read it, then our article is a godsend for you. We will pay close attention to finding out what this mysterious PNR in an electronic ticket is and why it is still needed.
Buying tickets online
Today, buying tickets via the Internet is not only convenient and fashionable, but also economically feasible. Thanks to this service, you can choose the shortest route at the most affordable cost. In addition, the passenger gets the opportunity to make payments without leaving home, which significantly speeds up this process.
Experienced travelers have long had trusted intermediaries through whom they make purchases and do not doubt their honesty. But newcomers run the risk of falling into the hands of scammers and ruining their vacation. However, the PNR code in the electronic ticket will come to the rescue. This simple combination of letters and numbers is found on every itinerary receipt sent by email and includes a lot of useful information.
Therefore, if you bought tickets on the site for the first time and doubt their authenticity, then open the letter from the airline and let’s study the document sent to you.
Route receipt: what is it?
Remember that each airline must issue an itinerary receipt for the passenger. When purchasing a ticket via the Internet, it is compiled almost instantly (after payment) and is generated automatically by the system. This document is then sent to the client’s email. Usually, not even ten minutes pass from payment to receipt of the ticket.
The itinerary receipt contains all the information about the passenger and his flight, while its appearance is not regulated in any way. Each company has its own rules according to which data is located and grouped on a ticket. Therefore, do not be surprised if you see completely different itinerary receipts purchased through different services.
Please keep in mind that you can print your e-ticket before boarding your flight, but this is not necessary since all your information is already entered into the airline’s database. If you still want to print the document, then do it on a regular sheet. Even in this form, it is an official document that is suitable for strict reporting in the accounting department of your company and other organizations.
Features of an electronic ticket
Many older Russians still prefer to purchase tickets at the box office, so that after payment they can hold it in their hands and definitely not worry about any small details. However, electronic has a lot of its advantages and features that I would like to mention:
- an electronic ticket does not have a letterhead and cannot be touched;
- it cannot be lost;
- the itinerary receipt cannot be falsified;
- an electronic ticket cannot be stolen;
- With a ticket purchased online, you can check in for your flight via the Internet;
- a passenger can arrive at the airport only with a passport in hand.
As you can see, there are a huge number of advantages in an electronic ticket. Therefore, you should not be afraid to purchase it via the Internet, you just need to be very careful and understand what kind of document you received after the transaction.
Reading the ticket
If this is your first time holding an electronic ticket in your hands, then you need to learn how to read it. Most of the information is written on it in English.
First of all, find your first and last name on the form. In cases where you are planning a trip abroad, check their spelling with the data in your international passport. If they do not match, then you are unlikely to be able to board the plane. Therefore, contact the airline and make any necessary changes before it is too late.
At the top of the itinerary receipt are your ticket number and the name of the organization through which the purchase was made. If necessary, you can check the authenticity of the ticket on its website.
Also be sure to check the date and time of departure, as well as the arrival and departure airports on your receipt. This information is usually indicated in the middle part of the ticket. The flight number and the airline that will operate it are also printed here.
In addition to all the listed components of the itinerary receipt, it will necessarily contain your passport details, the day the ticket was issued, the class of flight and the amount paid for the trip.
What is the PNR code on an e-ticket?
It is quite easy to recognize this code - it is a combination of five Latin letters and numbers. They contain a large amount of information about the traveler and the flight. Besides this code allows you to find out how honest the intermediary was with you. If he actually made a reservation, then you can easily check this by going to his website. We will talk about this verification method a little later.
Please note that on some receipts the code is six alphanumeric characters long. This option is also considered correct and is not an error.
Where is the PNR located on the e-ticket?
This code is usually located at the top of the itinerary receipt. Moreover, it can be applied both on the right and on the left. It is often grouped with the order number or routing receipt.
For example, let's look at where the PNR is in the Onur Air electronic ticket. If you pick up this airline's itinerary receipt, you will see a six-digit individual code. Onur Air is exactly the carrier that prints a six-character code. It will be located on the left side of the ticket after the airline and before the flight number and airport information.
Why is an alphanumeric code needed?
We already know where the PNR number is in the electronic ticket, but now we need to find out exactly how to use it and why it is given to passengers in the first place. We have already mentioned that this combination of Latin letters and numbers contains all the information about the traveler and the flight. In addition, thanks to the code, you can find out how honest the intermediary is with you and whether he really issued a ticket in your name. We recommend doing such a check even in cases where tickets are purchased on time-tested sites.
To check, you will need the name of the booking system through which your itinerary receipt was issued. Usually it is located just above the PNR code or next to it. Next, go to the website of the specified system and enter your individual code and your last name on the main page. A few seconds after starting the search, you should see detailed information about your ticket and flight. Moreover, its status must be indicated. These may be the words “issued” or “issued”.
If the information does not appear on the computer screen, then there can only be two reasons for this situation. The first is that you have just issued a ticket and it has not yet entered the database. Therefore, it is worth trying again in a few days. But the second reason is the most unpleasant - you have fallen for scammers and it’s time to start sounding the alarm.
Six-digit code: advantages of this option
The six-character code gives the passenger more benefits as it allows the authenticity of the ticket to be verified in an international database. The verification algorithm is identical to the one we already described in the previous section.
Not everyone trusts the interactive mode when it comes to purchasing anything, and the same applies to purchasing tickets.

The advent of the Internet has made life easier for many people, including air travelers. With the help of the World Wide Web, it is convenient to purchase air tickets for the required airline flight without spending a long time in queues. Booking a passenger seat on board an aircraft online is popular among tourists all over the world.
But not all travelers agree to purchase an airline travel document using the Internet. Often doubts when purchasing arise among older people who are accustomed to making purchases at airline ticket offices in person. But to ensure the authenticity of purchasing air tickets online, any document can be verified using a unique number. But you can check the authenticity only after making the payment.
When a person pays for an air ticket, he receives the purchased travel document in electronic form by email. Outwardly, it is difficult to distinguish it from an air ticket purchased in the usual way through an air ticket office. The electronic ticket contains information confirming the possibility of taking a seat on the plane. On the document you can see the passenger's full name, airline name, flight code and time, air ticket number, as well as a unique booking number. The authenticity of the online reservation is verified using the reservation number.
A unique number confirming the fact of booking a passenger seat consists of six numbers and letters of the Latin alphabet. You can find it in the “Booking Details” field. The electronic air ticket can be filled out using the English alphabet. Then look for the unique code in the “Booking Reference” field. The names of these fields are usually abbreviated.
Any tourist can book a ticket for the required flight using online services.
The largest and most popular services are:
- "Galileo";
- "Amadeus";
- "Sirena-Travel";
- "Sabre."
Information about the online service will be useful when checking the authenticity of an air ticket. The travel document will indicate the name of the site through which the purchase was made.
To check an electronic air ticket, you must go to a special website, indicate the online service you are using, a unique reservation number and personal data using letters of the Latin alphabet. The test will take several minutes, after which the result will appear on the screen.
Checking plane travel documents through online services is not the only way. To ensure that you have paid for a passenger seat on board an airliner long before your upcoming flight, you can call the hotline of the selected air carrier. You can find the phone number and name of the airline on your electronic ticket. The operator must provide the unique booking number and the passenger's full name, after which you will learn about the result of the check. Calling the hotline is convenient for tourists who do not have access to the World Wide Web.
A plane travel document can be verified not only by the unique booking number, but also by the air ticket number. There are special online services, for example, OneTwoTrip. On the site you need to enter either the reservation code or the air ticket number located in the lower field.
Checking the validity of an air ticket
Experienced tourists have encountered situations where air carriers have canceled flights. This may be due to a sharp deterioration in weather conditions or an aircraft breakdown. To avoid spending an unknown amount of time at the airport waiting to board, passengers can check the validity of their travel document in advance.
Those who purchased an air ticket through a travel agency will be informed in advance by agency representatives about the cancellation of the flight. Other passengers who purchased air tickets on their own need to independently find out about the relevance of the upcoming flight. Airlines rarely notify customers of flight cancellations.
You can track information about your upcoming air travel through the official website of the air carrier. If you see in the “Flight Status” column that the flight has been confirmed, then don’t worry. But there may be a situation where this field shows “Not Confirmed” or there is no information at all, and then action should be taken. You need to call the airline and find out in more detail about the upcoming flight.
There is no need to worry that the flight will be completely cancelled. It is possible that the flight will be temporarily delayed. In some cases, airlines may ask other air carriers to have passengers transported on a different aircraft.
In any case, don't worry about the money you spent. It does not matter where the air ticket was purchased: via the Internet or in person at the ticket office. If the flight is cancelled, the passenger will be fully refunded.
If you purchased your air ticket online, you should have it with you in paper form. Print your electronic travel document in advance, especially when traveling internationally. If the flight is made within Russia, then it is advisable to have a paper version of the electronic air ticket to avoid difficulties.
Don't worry if you don't receive an email with your ticket immediately after payment. Check the correctness of the entered postal address, and if you find an error, call the airline. If there is no error in the email, wait 1-2 hours. The airline requires a background check after payment has been made.
When filling out fields with personal data, be careful. It is necessary to match the full name on the electronic ticket and the foreign passport. A mistake in one letter can lead to the inability to board the plane. If an error is detected in the purchased electronic air ticket, you need to contact the air carrier to correct it. They should send you new air ticket in corrected form.
