    Just to add to all the other comments a middle name is not needed on flight tickets.

    Some countries may require airlines to collect more information as Advanced Passenger Information, but this can be done on the airlines website or at check in - may need the middle name if it's on the passport.  But it still makes no difference to the ticket.

    9. Cancellation :

    Should you or any member of your party be forced to cancel your holiday, we must be notified in writing by the person who made the booking and who is therefore responsible for the payment of cancellation charges. Cancellation charges are calculated from the date we receive the written notice of cancellation. Amount of cancellation charges (shown as a % total holiday cost) More than 42 days - Deposit 29-42 days - 50% 15-28 days - 70% 8-14 days - 90% 1-4 days - 100% After ticket issue : Cancellation will result in loss of 100% of total cost of all travel arrangements in most cases. Please consult your reservation adviser. Charter flights carry 100% cancellation fee both before and after ticket issue.

    My middle name is on my passport but I have never used it for flight tickets either.
