The closest I've come to that situation is having airline computer
systems merge my first and middle names ("Thomas Michael Dalton"
becomes "Thomasmichael Dalton"), which has happened multiple times. It
causes problems with checking in online because the website expects
you to enter your name in the exact format it appears on their
records, but it has never caused a problem when dealing with real
people at the airport who can tell the difference between a computer
glitch and someone travelling under the wrong name.On 10 July 2012 06:46, Benjamin Chen <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi guys, > > (a bit off-topic but needs some advice) > > I'm flying to DC (via LAX) today and when I was checking in, I was told that > my last name and first name gets switched. > > I was able to check in from the China side, but not sure if it will also be > ok when I leave America.
