I recently booked a flight, and I want to confirm that my air ticket has been successfully confirmed. How can I check the status of my ticket and verify that my booking is confirmed? Are there any specific methods to check the confirmation online, and should I expect to receive any confirmation email or document? Additionally, is there a way to verify my seat allocation and ensure there are no issues with my booking before my flight?

To confirm your air ticket and verify your booking status, here are the steps and methods you can use:
1. Check Your Email for Confirmation
2. Visit the Airline's Website
Most airlines have an option on their website to check the status of your booking. You can do this by:
1. Check Your Email for Confirmation
- Confirmation Email: After booking your flight, airlines typically send a confirmation email with your e-ticket or booking reference number. This email will contain:
- Your ticket number
- Booking reference (PNR) or reservation code
- Flight details (dates, times, and airports)
- Seat allocation (if assigned during booking)
- Any special requests (e.g., meal preferences)
2. Visit the Airline's Website
Most airlines have an option on their website to check the status of your booking. You can do this by:
- Entering your booking reference (PNR) number or ticket number and your last name in the 'Manage My Booking' or 'Check My Flight' section.
- Some airlines will provide full details of your booking, including your seat allocation, flight status, and even options to modify your booking (e.g., adding baggage, selecting a seat).
- The airline’s website may also show if your booking is confirmed or pending.
- Many airlines also offer mobile apps where you can log in and view your booking status, flight details, and any updates. If you’ve booked directly through the airline, your mobile app will often show a digital version of your ticket.
- If you did not receive a confirmation email or are unsure about your booking status, you can contact the airline directly. Provide your name and booking reference or ticket number.
- You can reach them via their customer service phone number, email, or social media channels.
- During the booking process, many airlines allow you to choose or confirm your seat. If you have already selected a seat, it should be listed in your confirmation email or visible when you check the booking online via the airline's website or app.
- If you haven't selected a seat, you may be able to do so online by accessing your booking (again, using the booking reference).
- Some airlines may charge extra for premium seats (like extra legroom or preferred seating), and these can often be confirmed or modified through the "Manage My Booking" section on the airline's website.
- If you booked through a third-party website (e.g., Expedia, Booking.com, Skyscanner), you can log in to your account on their platform to view your booking details.
- However, you may need to cross-check this information with the airline directly to ensure everything is confirmed, as third-party sites sometimes have delays in processing updates.
- Ensure your payment has been successfully processed. You can verify this by checking your bank statement or credit card transaction history. If the payment didn’t go through, your booking might not be confirmed.
- Boarding pass: Typically, you’ll receive your boarding pass either online (via email or app) or at the airport during check-in. You can check your flight status and check in online 24-48 hours before your flight. The airline will provide you with a boarding pass that you will need at the airport for security and boarding.
- Look for the confirmation email with your ticket and PNR.
- Use the airline’s website or app to check the booking status and seat allocation.
- Contact the airline directly for any uncertainties.
- Verify your payment and booking details to avoid any issues before the flight.
