📞 For the fastest help, call Philippine Airlines customer support at 1-866-284-3022. Their agents are trained to assist with name corrections.
✍️ Did you book a flight with Philippine Airlines and realize your name is misspelled or needs updating? Whether it is a minor typo or a legal name change, it is essential to correct your flight details before travel to avoid problems at check-in. Fortunately, Philippine Airlines offers options for name changes or corrections -- and we are here to guide you through the process, step by step.
📌 Why Name Corrections Matter
Airlines require that the name on your ticket exactly matches the name on your government-issued ID or passport. Even a small typo can result in:
❌ Denied boarding
❌ TSA security issues
❌ Non-refundable tickets going to waste
That is why it is important to act quickly if you notice an error.
👉 Pro Tip: As soon as you spot an issue with your name, call 1-866-284-3022 to fix it directly with Philippine Airlines.
📋 Philippine Airlines Name Correction Policy: The Basics
Philippine Airlines does allow name corrections and changes, but there are specific rules based on the type and extent of the correction.
✏️ Minor Name Corrections
If your correction is minor (e.g., spelling mistake, missing middle name, or nickname to legal name), it is usually easy to fix.
Examples:
• "Jonh" to "John"
• "Liz" to "Elizabeth"
• Missing middle name or incorrect initials
🟢 These are typically allowed once per passenger. Call 📞 1-866-284-3022 to request a minor correction. You may need to provide identification or legal documentation.
🔄 Major Name Changes
For legal name changes due to:
• Marriage 👰
• Divorce 💔
• Legal court order 📄
You will likely be required to submit legal documents (e.g., marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court papers).
Important: Name changes are different from transferring your ticket to someone else -- Sun Country does not allow name transfers. The passenger must remain the same person.
📞 For clarity and assistance, it is best to speak to a representative at 1-866-284-3022.
💰 Are There Any Fees for Name Changes?
Yes, in most cases, Sun Country charges a name change or correction fee, which may vary depending on:
• The type of fare you purchased
• How close it is to your departure date
• Whether the change is made online or via customer service
Fees can range from $75 to $150, though minor corrections may be less, especially if made within 24 hours of booking.
