OREANDA-NEWS. May 16, 2008. National company Uzbekistan Airways will start the sale of electronic tickets from 1 June 2008, deputy commercial director Vladimir Filipas told.

All major airlines carrying out international flights are moving to electronic tickets this summer, which is a new standard of service pursued by the International Air Carriers Association (IATA).
The electronic ticket is a new method of processing the sale of passenger carriage in which all information is stored in the database of the airline’s automated system. The passengers will now receive an itinerary receipt printed on an ordinary sheet of paper and containing all the information that is usually included in the air ticket.

The e-ticket can be purchased either personally or via the Internet or by telephone. In case of a loss, a passenger may recover it while registering at the airport through an automated system.
