sorry i do not know what i am doing as i usually book through a travel agent

E-Ticket means it is an online ticket and is stored in the UA computer system. You can find your reservation by looking under your "My Itineraries" on the UA web site. Under current itineraries, u hit e-receipt and it will take you to a page with the reciept. You can print a copy of the e-reciept and take a copy of the e-receipt or the email you already received from UA with you when you check in. Although I have never been asked for a copy of anything when I check in. You should be fine.

thankyou so much yestravel
i guess i am worrying about nothing i will take a copy of the e- reciept
to airport
i think i am worrying because i am travelling on my own and want everything to go smoothly

I hope you have a good trip!

Make sure the ticket number appears on the receipt. It will be a very long number starting with 016.
