e-ticket

Paperless travel confirmation

An e-ticket is an electronic ticket—a digital record replacing a paper document for airline flights, concerts, trains, or other events.

The ticket exists in a computer system rather than as a physical object: I just need to show the e-ticket on my phone.

E-ticketing has largely displaced paper tickets for air travel.
