If you’ve spotted an error on your American Airlines ticket, you might be wondering about the rules for making a name change. American Airlines has a structured policy that allows passengers to correct name mistakes, particularly for minor spelling errors or legal name changes (such as after a marriage or divorce). However, changing the name to another person is strictly prohibited, as tickets are non-transferable.
To change the name, you’ll need to log into your account on the American Airlines website or reach out to their customer service. Corrections for minor issues are typically straightforward, but it’s advisable to address the error as soon as possible to avoid complications closer to your departure date. Note that there could be administrative fees depending on the type of change you’re requesting.
