(1+860-215-4413) Can I Change a Name on a United

United Airlines typically allows name changes on flight tickets under certain circumstances, but there are specific policies and procedures to follow. Here's what you need to know about United's name change policy:

Basic Policy: United generally allows name changes on tickets for a fee, but this may depend on the type of ticket you purchased and the specific fare rules associated with it.

Tickets Purchased Directly from United: If you bought your ticket directly from United Airlines, you can usually make changes through United's customer service channels, including their website, mobile app, or by calling their reservations number. They will inform you of any fees associated with the name change.

Third-party Purchases: If you bought your ticket through a third-party website or travel agency, you may need to contact them first to inquire about changing the name on the ticket. Some third-party vendors have their own policies and procedures for name changes, and they may need to coordinate with United on your behalf.

Documentation Requirements: When requesting a name change, United will likely require certain documentation to verify the identity of the passenger and ensure security compliance. This may include a copy of your government-issued ID or passport.

Fees: United typically charges a fee for name changes on tickets, and the amount may vary depending on factors such as the type of ticket, the fare rules, and how close it is to the departure date. The fee is usually non-refundable.

Exceptions: In some cases, United may waive the name change fee, such as in situations involving a legal name change (e.g., marriage, divorce) or in cases of misspelled names. However, these exceptions are at the discretion of the airline and may require documentation to support the request.

Timing: It's generally easier to make name changes well in advance of the flight date. Changes made closer to the departure date may incur higher fees or may not be possible at all, especially if it affects the airline's ability to comply with security regulations or if the flight is fully booked.

Remember to always check with United directly or review your ticket's terms and conditions for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding their name change policy.\n\n\n\n\n
