Frequently asked questions

Can I get a copy of an old United Airlines receipt?
Often yes — check your email, your United Airlines app or online account, and your card statement. For older purchases, United Airlines customer service may be able to look up the transaction with your card and the date.
Does United Airlines keep receipts on file?
It varies. Purchases made through a United Airlines app, loyalty program or online account are usually stored in your order history. In-store cash purchases are the hardest to retrieve, which is when recreating a receipt for your records is most useful.
