Can you Change Names on a TUI Flight?

The feeling that you get at one time when you book in the wrong name, unintentionally, is something many travelers have also been through. Perhaps you were in a hurry with the reservation, or maybe you had a change of parties and made a serious but easy mistake. It can seem like a nightmare unravelling when you have made a trip, and the name on the ticket does not match the name on the official identification when it comes to a major player like TUI. You may be picturing the inconvenience of checking in at the airport counter, or even worse, the dawning of the fact that before the travel plans even commence, they are totally brought to a halt. TUI and most airline companies have well-defined protocols for addressing such cases, yet the complexity and affordability of the change usually hinge on the reason as to why the name must be changed, whether it is an actual mistake or a total replacement. Knowledge of these rules is the trick in turning that first panic into a manageable affair, to keep your trip going in the right direction.
