Hey, my colleague booked a flight, but mispelled her first name. Just one letter (the first) wrong. 1h ago.
Any advices to get it fixed for free?

Not answering, or helpful for your question sorry, but I book quite a few people on Virgin and appreciate that they match the name and Velocity number during the booking process, if I have a typo it won’t let me continue

I did get a name wrong for someone who had not given me their Velocity number, and they were able to board
 
Ah, ended up calling, was concerned they would charge, but it was an obvious mistake, right after booking, so they waived the fee.
 
I think that usually comes under name correction not name change so it can't be sorted relatively easily.
