Has anyone ever been denied boarding because of inverted first and last name on the booking? First as last, last as first.

Airline wants me to cancel and rebook at $1500 loss 😥 but everywhere I look people claim to have gotten through without issues.

Just fly it Smith Nick.

TSA is the only one that would pretend to give a damn, if the odd chance they turn you down so to the next line.

The new ID requirements need everything to match perfectly or TSA will send you away. We’ve seen a lot of issues with mismatched birthday.
But the airline should be able to adjust it. They shouldn’t require cancellation and rebooking.

Try being Irish. "Your name must match your ID" My ID has an apostrophe. The airline sites don't allow an apostrophe. AND I have to call to get my airline miles.....for the same reason. UGH

Once had a ticket issued with the wrong gender and my first name pretty butchered but had no problems flying-this was an international route with a layover

This smells like a DOT/FAA requirement IMO

I’m job searching right now and applied for a job I was a little overqualified for just to shoot my shot and get my foot in the door with a great brand. The hiring mgr took the time to email me to tell me I was overqualified and offered to help me get connected to his network. He’s been so kind and helpful and I’m kind of in shock at his generosity. Even if an offer doesn’t come from it, is it weird if I send him a Starbucks gift card or something as a thank you? What’s appropriate?

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last. So many times they are limping or in a wheelchair boarding. And then when we land that are the first to jump up and scurry off. Just not ethical.
