Is the middle name on the passport?

dan2002

I would contact the airline. We had a to change a spelling with virgin recently and they were very helpful although they did try to charge us.

Generally, what counts is spelling of surname, and initials. I would be very surprised if anyone looks at spelling of a middle name.

I'd be staggered if they considered the middle name

thanks but dont want to get to airport and be turned away

dan2002

hi just of the phone to ryanair and they change the middle name free of charge ,so I know they are not as bad as a lot think they are

Another moneymaking potential for Ryanair, wonder when they will start to charge

I'll swear they would fit coion operated toilets on the plane if they could get away with it!

No they'd make you book them in advance at time of booking or charge twice as much at the airport - with different rates for number ones & twos and no refunds for unused toilet visits

Toilet visits won't be shareable within a group and if booked in the wrong name will cost £70 per toilet visit to change

i've had a bit of a groundhog moment here ...i was with a friend today who had booked a group of friends to fly with easyjet and had included all the middle names ....why i asked have you done that when it increases the chance of a !!!!-up ? i can't think of any airline i've flown with that requires your middle name (and if they have i can't ever remember including it)
