HELP PLEASE
I am due to fly out on 24th august but i have an error on my name on my airline ticket, it is spelt Chantelle Ryan but my passport is Chantel ryan, how will this effect me?
|
Small errors like this are not considered a big deal. People fly all the time with Jim/James, Bob/Robert, etc.
Can anyone guarantee you won't have any issues? No. But I think you'll be ok. |
I am seriously worried. This is going to be first time going abroad ever and i have read that the name on my flight ticket needs to match my passport.
|
When you called the airline what did they tell you?
|
Why is it spelled differently? Presumably, the passport is correct, so who is responsible for the misspelling on the ticket?
|
spelt, not spelled...

Spelled vs. spelt - Grammarist
In American English, spelt primarily refers to the hardy wheat grown mostly in Europe, and the verb spell makes spelled in the past tense and as a past participle. http://grammarist.com/spelling/spelled-spelt/ |
Thanks for your reply J62. Today I managed to get in-touch with the airline and they said they was going to attach a note to my flight stating the error of my mis-spelt name and I was given the telephone number for TSA.
So I gave them a ring and was told to arrive at the airport a few hours earlier and take lots of ID both picture and bills with my address on to confirm who I am. So I am hoping everything will run smoothly, no doubt I expect to be questioned at the airport over the error and this will have no interruptions with me leaving the UK and having my first ever holiday. |
I am glad you got the help you needed. Thats what this forum is for. :S-
