I've had a look at previous e-tickets for VS flights and they all contain a section headed "Fare Details" which show the cost of the flight. I'm planning to surprise my girlfriend with a trip to the States but don't want her to know the cost of the flights. Is it possible to get an e-ticket that doesn't show the price paid for the tickets? If not, what would happen if I removed the fare details section from the e-ticket before printing it and presenting it at check-in?
In the past when printing off the e-ticket from the email all I printed off was the first page which contained the booking confirmation number and the names of the passenger(s). The fare details were on the second page. This was always accepted both at security and at check-in. I am however aware that they have re-formatted the email so you may need to look at this.
In many stations overseas, especially on the SYD-HKG route we were checked in only with passports.
