I made a mistake while booking a flight through an app by selecting the option that the passenger doesn’t have a last name. Now I’m trying to correct it by adding the last name “Tan,” but the app won’t process the change and instead tells me to cancel and rebook.
The passport shows the full name as “TAN YI LING,” but I think the system expects it formatted as “YI LING TAN,” which might be causing the issue. I tried contacting customer support but couldn’t get through to a real person, and changing it directly with the airline would cost over $100.
Since I didn’t enter a passport number during booking, I’m wondering if it would still be possible to check in using just “YI LING,” or if I need to fix the name before traveling.
