Name on ticket for domestic flight

[redwino]

My friend booked us airline tickets for california. I have 2 last names but the state told me their system couldn't do that on my ID so it reads Smith, Suzy Que Jones. My friend booked my ticket in my legal name Jones Smith, Suzy Que. Everything is spelled correctly and the email confirmation reads Passenger: Suzy Que Jones Smith without indication of middle name and last name. Do I need to correct this?

I hate flying and this is another thing added to my anxiety.

It has not been a problem for me.

My maiden name is now my legal middle name. Two airlines have it as hyphenated in their systems and others have just my last name then first and middle names.

Both names show on my ID though.

To be certain and since you're already feeling anxious, call the airlines and get it corrected. One less thing to worry about on travel day. Times are changing and just getting through the airport is rough enough. Flying home this past weekend, I felt very violated by TSA's "pat" down. I had to literally go to the restroom to undo a wedgie. Is this what we've come to? I'm still upset about it!

I think that should be fine but you could always call the airline just to double check.

I'll call to give myself peace of mind. I'll probably have my friend call since I sent her a text about my ID and she ignored it.

childofhiphop I just reread about your wedgie. That is horrible! Was it a woman who patted you down?

[childofhiphop]

Yes. Sadly a woman. It was waaay more than the back of the hands. I need to figure out how to file a complaint.

It seems like the world is so backwards right now.

childofhiphop, that sucks so bad, i'm really sorry.

redwino, It's probably not a big deal, but I'd correct to be on the safe side. Too much craziness these days.

That's ridiculous! I'm sorry you were violated like that.

I usually pop an Ativan for flights but I won't this time because I need to be alert. I also won't have DH with me who is my true calming factor so I'm sure I'll be a mess without TSA fucking with me. I called the airline last night and they sent me a new confirmation with just first and last name. The internet told me that's perfectly fine so at least I feel good about that.
