Hi
I made two reward bookings using life miles flying SYD-ICN-LAX. Two separate tickets with an overnight stay in Seoul. I just realised I made a typo in my first name on the SYD-ICN reservation (double up of one of the letters - eg Christiian instead of Christian). Is this going to be a problem? Am I likely to be denied boarding ? Should I cancel and rebook ?

Cheers
Lp

I wouldn't bother for one letter in a first name. I doubt they'll even notice.

It's way more stressful having to jump through all the hoops getting LM to re-issue when it's just not necessary.

As I posted on another occasion I've yet to see anyone from Brazil who has a ticket that actually matches what's in their passport.

I have added one too many letters in one of my middle names to the USA & no issue at all as when they swipe the passport it will correct it in the APIS fields (the reservation still stays as is).

Don't lose any sleep over it.
