I have been stuck for hours, could someone please help me? No matter what I do I cant get it to stop looping. Thanks.

for (;;)

This will loop until you break; from it. So break; at the top level of the loop (i.e. not from within something else inside the for loop) where you want to stop looping.

Hi, you can do something like this:

//...

cout<<"Do you want to continue (Y/N): ";
        cin>>t;
if (t == "Y" || t == "y") break; // Or any other way to get out of the f(;;) loop like exit();

cout<<"Please enter the ticket type:F,B,or E: ";
        cin>>t;

//...
