EZair name error

Not EZAir, but for tickets in general, the ticketing info commonly shows "Firstmiddle Last".  On boarding passes we commonly see "Last/Firstmiddle" (no spaces).

This ^^^

You're not the first to worry about this name mashup but it's been around for quite a few years now and seems to be the way most airlines do it these days.

Mine and DH names always look like that on EZAir boarding passes ( and on the airline apps) and have for years. For some reason they just run it all together.  I am looking at two upcoming flights that are exactly like that and last month same thing. Never a problem.

I don't mind my middle name on the airline tickets but EZair booked our tickets with Firstmiddle Mrs.  (no middle) Last. The first name on the ticket is literally my first name no space then my middle name then a space and Mrs. Should I call and have a fit or will the airlines let this pass?

You have an issue, you need to make sure it matches the passport name, not the drivers license for overseas travel

The problem with this change is this. You are flying to another country and use the passport reader. The passport reader says your ticket doesn't match your ticket so go see an agent.
You go see an agent and they may say your name doesn't match your ticket. I had this exact problem last May flying to a cruise. I was refused boarding. I had to get a supervisor to come and explain the situation to her. I was finally allowed to board.

There is also a problem with those that have 2 middle names as the second middle name gets cut off. This was another reason why airlines decided to merge names.

The surprising thing is it has got worse since 911.
