I actually went through something pretty similar a while back, so I totally get why you’d want that confirmation. Last year, I needed to get a Delta ticket confirmation for a flight I’d taken months earlier because I was trying to file for travel reimbursement at work. Of course, by the time I checked, I couldn’t find the original email anywhere—apparently, I’d deleted it while cleaning out my inbox. I figured I was out of luck, but it turned out to be easier than I expected once I knew where to look.
First, I logged into my Delta SkyMiles account, and sure enough, all my past trips were still listed under “My Trips.” Even though the flight had already happened, I could still view the full itinerary and download the receipt. It showed my confirmation code, flight number, and even the total fare breakdown. For people who didn’t book directly through Delta (like if you used Expedia or another site), I’ve heard it’s best to check that site first or call Delta directly with your name, date of travel, and departure city.
When I called Delta’s customer service just to double-check, they were super helpful. They emailed me a copy of the ticket confirmation within minutes. So yes, you can definitely get a past ticket confirmation—it just takes a little digging, but Delta’s systems make it doable.
