Air Mauritius allows passengers to correct minor spelling errors in their names or update their names due to legal reasons (e.g., marriage, divorce). However, the airline's name change policy is strict, and significant changes (e.g., transferring a ticket to another person) are generally not permitted.
Key Points of the Policy:
Minor Corrections Allowed:
- Small spelling mistakes (e.g., "Jhon" → "John") can be corrected.
- Typically, up to 2-3 characters can be adjusted.
Legal Name Changes:
- Supported with valid documentation (e.g., marriage certificate, court order).
Major Changes Not Permitted:
- Air Mauritius usually does not allow transferring a ticket to another person.
- If you cannot travel, you may need to cancel and rebook (subject to fare rules).
Fees May Apply:
- Name corrections may incur a fee, depending on the fare type and ticket conditions.
Process:
- Contact Air Mauritius customer service or your travel agent.
- Provide booking details and supporting documents (if required).
How to Request a Name Change:
Online: Manage your booking via the Air Mauritius website.
Phone: Call the airline’s customer support.
Airport Office: Visit an Air Mauritius ticket counter.
Important Notes:
- Name changes must match the passenger’s passport or ID.
- Changes are subject to approval and may not be possible for all tickets.
