What is an e-ticket?
Book your flight as usual. If you opt for the e-ticket, we will not issue a paper ticket, but create an electronic ticket in our reservation system. You will receive a confirmation by e-mail.

• Safer: You cannot forget or misplace your e-ticket, and it cannot be stolen. You can fly as usual, even without your Miles & More card. When checking in at the SWISS counter, your passport or ID card is sufficient for your identification.
• Faster: Save time by changing or cancelling your reservation with a simple   phone call.
  If you book your flight on swiss.com, use a conventional credit card. We will send you a confirmation by e-mail. When making your reservation, please give your name as indicated in your passport.

Checking in with an e-ticket

• At a  self check-in machine: If you are travelling with hand baggage only, this is a way to avoid long queues at the airport. Prove your identity at one of the check-in machines - with your Miles & More card or your credit card (the one you paid your ticket with). At least 30 minutes before the departure of your flight. The machine will print out your boarding card, and you can go straight to the gate.
• At a check-in counter: If you are checking in baggage or flying from an airport without check-in machines, you will get your boarding pass at a check-in counter. Present your passport or ID card to prove your identity. If your return flight is within 24 hours after your departure, check in for that flight as well.
• Web check-in: Check in online, select your seat and print out your boarding pass. The web check-in works between 24 hours and 1 hour before the departure of your flight.
