urgent easy jet - booking name

Saint_Chris

I booked flights for friends last night with easy jet.

i booked

out manchester to alicante
ret alicante to liverpool

i booked one of my friends down as

for eg.

Tommy Jones

i've now been informed that the name on her passport is

Tommy Lee Jones.

Now would she still be able to fly, or do i have to ring up and ask them to add the lee.

thanks

Is Lee a middle name or surname? This may make a difference. Had a friend with a similar problem a while back, but because they had put, for example, Tommy and the name in passport was Thomas the airline was OK with it - recognised that Tommy is often used as abbreviation for Thomas and as surname was correct it was Ok. But thiis was several years ago and I know things have tightened up since. Does the website give any advice?

Sorry Lee would be there name

i'll show an example of some other name

Patricia Susan Smith is the name on there passport

I booked using

Patricia Smith

Missing out the Susan

I would ring the airline NOW and ask them direct, and get the name of the person you spoke to and follow the advise they give you

Yes, that sounds right - I haven't flown with easyjet for a while, but I'm sure we only usually use first names - I've flown when friends who I'm sure don't know my middle name have made the booking.

Ya fine - stop panicing!

I've booked tickets both ways: used 1st & last and used 1st, 2nd, and last. Never had any problems.

thanks for that, i just didn't want to get to the airport in december and be stung for a fortune.

they want

£26 to add the middle name on the outward flight

and

£24 to add the middle name on the inbound flight

Dont worry I have never used my middle name on any flight, even though on my passport and never had a problem, same with hubby and 2 children. Also have booked flights for friends and didn't know their middle name, so did not put down and no problems. Have flown with Easy jet and Ryan air with no problems lots of times.
