Flying/ ID Question  |
| |
| As most know my wife is flying out from Minneapolis MN to Detroit MI to be a bone marrow donor for her brother. The tickets have been purchased online. She is to bring an ID to the airport as twey always ask now days. My question is as follows. Her nephew spelled her last name wrong by one letter when he made the reservations buying the tickets. Now will this make a differnce in getting her E-ticket or boarding? Will it create a hasdsle on a domestic short flight like this thriough security? Thanks in advance for all answers.opinions and responses. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~ | | My Dazed and cinfused wife Debbie | | | | |

| | Yeah it's a typical name as well. It's Olson and it's spelled Olsen on the reservations instead. I hope she doesn't have a problem. Thanks. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~ | | | |

| | Hi Grandpa Bob! Hopefully it shouldn't be a problem, and I don't think it should be. The only thing I can suggest is maybe to call the airport and ask. They would know better then anyone I think, or email the place that the tickets were purchased. Hope it works out okay! Luv & Hugzz, PurpleTeddyBear. | | | | | | |

| | Since I don't fly, not sure but they will probably let her pass since only one letter is wrong and she isn't flying overseas or anything. Just a short hop. | | | | | | |

| | She'll have her ID with her and I'd like to think it'll be fine but it probably won't hurt to call and ask. | | | | | | |

| | I think I may call and ask. Otherwise I am sure they'll just compare birthdates and address. Thanks. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~ | | | |

| | It might not hurt to contact the airline directly before she leaves and ask. I know they can be really tight on things like this but then other's may not think a thing of it. Rather than drive to the airport only to be met with hassles though it wouldn't hurt to check ahead. | | | | | | |

| | I'm actually surprised the last time I flew was 3 years ago when we went to South Dakota for #2 son's wedding - my parents got tickets for each of them as well as myself and youngest son - the ticket agent sent papers to my house requireing birth certificates, proof of residency and all kinds of stuff. That was weeks before flight time. | | | |

| | I would strongly suggest calling the ticket provider AND airline to find out. If you don't and it causes a problem, Debbie could miss her appointment with her brother. If you do you will forlay any problems and the airline will know before you get to the gate that you have looked after the problem. I don't fly often enough to know exactly what the 'right' thing to do is but in my opinion those are the actions I would take. The only imformation I have on the problems of flying is what is reported on the news and that seems like nobody is getting away with anything so I wouldn't take the chance. Debbie's appointment is just way to important to take such a chance. Susan | | | | | | |

| | It probably won't be a problem since everything else will be correct. There are enough things to slow down the travel process without them making a big deal out of the spelling of a name. | | | | | | |

| | I don't think its going to be a problem. Especially on such a short flight from MN to MI. I am just a peon but people always spell my first name wrong. Yong. I have flown and my tickets will say Young. It's never been an issue as long as the rest of the name matches the ticket you should be fine! | | | | | | |

| | After my operation December 28th 2005 for cancer ....The colon cancer was cut away and everything would have been great no more cancer but those silly little tumours flew to the liver and that is why i am going for chemotherapy for almost 2 years now and as i have said never any pain etc etc But to the topic this was the foreplay above I am known as Archie F. for more the 40 years but my real name is begins with a V and for 5 weeks after the operation they never notified me when my chemo would start They had my birthday name V.F. and couldnot find him because everything i signed was Archie F. so that one missing thing did mess up things so indeed a missing letter can screw things up Thats it for today Thanks for sharing and in the words of Arnold I will Be Back | | | | | | |

| | This security at the airport is out of hand, and needs some common sence, this ID situation is beyond belief, you must not carry any liquids, take off your shoes, have them blow up your clothes to see if you have a bomb strapped to your body, Old ladies being body searched, it's too much invasion of privacy, look if your photo ID matches you will be tracked down, what about those who even look like Arabs, they wear Turbans on their heads, and their women cover their faces and head, how come they don't get frisked by the security guys. | | | |
