e-Ticketing SriLankan Airlines
What are e-Tickets?
When a passenger uses an e-Ticket, all the travel related information that was earlier available in a traditional paper ticket is stored electronically in the Computer Reservation System of SriLankan Airlines. Therefore the passenger does not have to collect the traditional paper tickets from our offices.
A print receipt of the e-Ticket showing the relevant travel details will be e-mailed to the passenger. The passenger is required to print and carry this document along with his passport for international travel, as he may need to present it at security, immigration, customs, and check-in points.
The benefits of an e-Ticket
- It is a very relaxing experience for the passenger when he uses the e-Ticketing facility, as it provides a sense of security as an e-Ticket cannot be lost, mislaid or stolen. The reason for this is that every e-Ticket issued by SriLankan Airlines is safely stored on our Computer Reservation System. On advice to us that the print receipt has been misplaced, a duplicate could be e-mailed or even faxed on request to the passenger
- It is no longer required for the passenger to visit an SriLankan Airlines Ticket Offices to collect his ticket or wait for it to be delivered to him.
- Travelling using an e-Ticket also provides the passenger to easily make changes to his booking where permitted at any time by phone or in person without the added hassle of having to visit one of our offices as his itinerary is stored safely with SriLankan Airlines.
How to obtain an e-Ticket?
A passenger is required to make an online booking, using the SriLankan Airlines Online Booking Facility. The option "e-Ticket" should be chosen as the Ticket Delivery Option. On completion of the booking process, an e-mail will be sent to the passenger as booking confirmation, which will contain the print receipt/ticket for the e-Ticket purchased online. The passenger should print the e-mailed print/ticket receipt, as it is now his valid travel document.
