Frequently asked questions

Can I get a copy of an old Delta Airlines receipt?
Often yes. Delta's online receipt lookup retrieves ticket and fee receipts by ticket number, confirmation code or credit card — no SkyMiles login required. For older purchases, Delta Airlines customer service may be able to look up the transaction with the card you paid with and the approximate date — the more precisely you can pin down the store, day and amount, the better the odds of a successful lookup.
Does Delta Airlines keep receipts on file?
It varies. Purchases made through a Delta Airlines app, loyalty program or online account are usually stored in your order history. Delta keeps ticket receipts searchable by card number alone, which rescues receipts for tickets booked by someone else. In-store cash purchases with no loyalty scan are the hardest to retrieve, which is when recreating a receipt for your records is most useful.
