Word origin

出票 (chūpiào, "issue tickets") combines 出 (chū, "go out") + 票 (piào, "ticket"), presenting the ticket as something sent out from the ticketing system to its holder.

Usage tips

  • In travel apps, a booking can be confirmed while the ticket is not yet issued, so a later status change marks the move from reservation to a usable ticket.
