British Airways Name Change Policy

1. Correcting Minor Name Errors

British Airways allows passengers to correct minor name errors, such as typographical mistakes or spelling errors, typically at no charge or for a small fee. These corrections generally include minor adjustments, such as fixing a misspelled name or modifying a middle name.

2. Full Name Changes

British Airways generally does not permit full name changes on a ticket after booking. For significant name changes, such as changing the entire first or last name, passengers may need to cancel the original booking and rebook a new ticket under the correct name. This process may involve cancellation fees and fare differences.

3. Name Change Fees

Fees for name corrections or allowable changes vary depending on the fare type, route, and timing of the request. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on fees, passengers should refer to British Airways' official website or contact customer service.

4. How to Request a Name Change

• Visit the British Airways website and log in to your account.
• Navigate to the "Manage My Booking" section.
• Select the booking you wish to modify and follow the instructions for requesting a name correction.
• For significant name changes, contact British Airways’ customer service directly for further assistance.

5. Documentation Requirements

If the name change request is due to legal reasons, such as marriage or divorce, you may be required to provide supporting legal documentation. Ensure these documents are available when submitting your name change request.
