Hi,

coffee break for me 😉  
You are close to the result: you only have to use the loft tool with guides.  
The key point is that the guides **must** perfectly intersect with the surfaces. Close to the surface is not good enough for the guides.

Do do the lofting:

- select the top and bottom surface
- select the first and second curve to guide the loft
- select the loft tool

You can delete the unwanted edge simply by selecting and hit delete.

If you want more control over the shape, you can add others guides.
