How can I get two separate receipts when booking two flight tickets online?
I need to book a flight for me and my spouse.
I am supposed to get a refund for my ticket from my workplace, but we need to pay for my spouse's ticket ourselves.
In order to get the refund, I need to submit a receipt for my own ticket, however when booking a flight online I believe I will only receive one receipt for both tickets.
I can book each of our tickets separately, but there are a few things I'm afraid of:
- The price might be higher.
- The first ticket I book might be the last ticket for that flight at that class.
- We might not get adjacent seats.
Am I right to have these concerns or am I just paranoid? Is there a way to book two flight tickets online in one purchase and get two separate receipts?
Best Answer
When you buy a ticket online, the receipt is usually just an HTML file that is displayed on screen and sent to the email address you provided. You can save either of those files to disk, open it in a text editor and remove the line listing your wife's ticket (might be more than one line in the source file) and then change the total sale price to the amount for just your ticket. You might need to change the total in more than a single place, but you ought to be able to make the modifications necessary in no more than a few minutes. Open it back up in a web browser and print.

Key Takeaways. If you purchase multiple tickets in a single transaction, the price will be the same for each of the tickets. If not enough of the lowest-cost seats are available, you'll pay a higher cost for all of the seats. Buy the tickets one at a time to make sure you get all of the lowest-cost seats available.Can you have 2 flights booked at the same time?

A double booking means bookings that have been made to the same passenger on overlapping or adjacent days. Airlines tend to cancel overlapping bookings automatically before ticketing.
