When my DH and I were dating he put my nickname on the plane ticket and they gave us a major hard time. They weren't going to let me fly. I think I had to go online at the airport and change the name and reissue the ticket. If we were running late we wouldn't have made it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427483 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:56:49 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2427483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok thanks! That's what I thought. I'll let him know. I feel bad because he called and asked for DD's spelling, but then he got mine wrong, lol. My DH had even sent our Driver's licences. Oh well. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427479 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:52:58 +0000 peachykeen 2427479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agreed, has to match government ID. If he booked within the last 24 hours, most airlines will allow you to cancel &amp; rebook with no extra cost. Don't wait too long to change it - they may charge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427458 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:34:49 +0000 mrsjazz 2427458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Change to full name. It has to match a gov't. issued ID. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427446 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:27:54 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2427446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd call the airline and ask... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427414 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:11:53 +0000 regberadaisy 2427414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ditto to above. Abby Smith can be a different person than Abigail Smith. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427408 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:04:58 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2427408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes has to match your passport </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427393 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 10:55:24 +0000 lawbee11 2427393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It has to match the name on your government issued ID which I assume is Abigail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-on-plane-tickets#post-2427389 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 10:54:18 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2427389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My FIL bought plane tickets for us last night and put down my nickname Abby instead of my full name Abigail. Do wet need to change that to my full name or can we get by with my nickname? </p>
