Fix a Name Before It Becomes a Problem at Check-In
A misspelling or a mismatch with your ID can hold up boarding. We help get it corrected ahead of time.
Airlines generally allow minor corrections โ a typo, a missing middle name, a legal name change โ but the process and what counts as "minor" varies by carrier. We handle the request so it's fixed before you're standing at the counter.
What this usually involves
Typos
A letter transposed or dropped when the ticket was booked.
Missing or extra name parts
A middle name left off, or a suffix that doesn't match your ID.
Legal name changes
Marriage, divorce or a court-ordered name change that needs to be reflected on an upcoming ticket.
Transposed first and last names
A common booking-form mix-up that's usually straightforward to fix if caught early.
How MyFlightsAssist handles it
Send us the exact correction needed and a copy of the ID it needs to match, and we'll work with the airline to get it updated on the reservation. The sooner this happens before travel, the fewer complications it tends to create.
MyFlightsAssist is an independent travel agency. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any airline. Any fare difference, penalty or charge from the airline is separate from our professional service fee. See our Service Fees page for details.
