    Reserving e-tickets is just like reserving other tickets. You will automatically be offered an e-ticket when you make a reservation. In some markets paper tickets can still  be requested, at a paper ticket fee. E-tickets are available on all our destinations and can also be issued for combined flights involving our various airline partners. 

    E-ticket advantages

    • Fast. No need to pick up your ticket or wait for it in the mail. Once you’ve booked, you’re ready to go.
    • Safe. Your e-ticket can’t be lost or stolen. It stays safely stored in our computer at all times.
    • Simple. Just show identification to check in and you’re on your way.                   

    Confirmation

    In stead of a paper ticket, you’ll receive a “Trip Summary and Receipt” containing all important flight details and your e-ticket number. KLM (or your travel agent) will send this by e-mail, fax or post, depending on your country of residence. We recommend that you keep a copy of this with you while you travel. If an immigration officer asks to see a return ticket, your e-ticket confirmation must be shown.

    Check-in

    E-ticket holders may use Internet check-in in addition to all other KLM check-in options (telephone, self-service machine, airport desk). Click here to check in.
