Hey all!
I'd like to book a CR flight for May-June 2026 in my future surname, but I do have a slight issue.
I recently got married to my wife, and have taken her surname. At this stage I have not changed my surname as I have an existing CR itinerary in August. I planned on changing my passport, QFF account, etc for the August itinerary but unfortunately as it contains multiple airlines QF cannot re ticket my itinerary in my new surname.
For the sake of simplicity I've opted to keep my current surname and will change it to my future surname after our return in Sept.
My issue is the CR flights I'd like to book for May-June 2026 are coming up with availability in the next few weeks. If I wait to September to change my surname the availability will be long gone.
Would it be okay to book my next CR flight in my new surname? I can book it without my QF number at this stage.
Then later on when I update my passport, QFF surname, etc I should then be able to add my QF number?
Would love to hear peoples thoughts and experiences on this topic.
Thanks!
