Ethiopian Airlines Name Change Policy

Ethiopian Airlines has specific guidelines regarding name changes and corrections on flight tickets:

Minor Name Corrections:

Eligibility: Corrections are permitted for transposition errors or minor misspellings in the first, middle, or last name, limited to changes of up to three characters.

Procedure: Such corrections must be made before the first flight of your itinerary.

Legal Name Changes:

Eligibility: If your name has legally changed due to marriage, divorce, or other reasons, you can request a name change.

Documentation Required: A copy of the relevant legal document (e.g., marriage certificate, court order) must be provided.

Service Fee: A fee of USD 50.00 applies for processing legal name changes.

Restrictions:

Ticket Transfer: Complete name changes transferring a ticket to another individual are not permitted.

Travel Agency Bookings: Tickets purchased through travel agencies are generally not eligible for name changes through Ethiopian Airlines directly; such requests should be directed to the respective travel agency.

Important Considerations:

Name Accuracy: Ensure that the name on your ticket matches exactly with your passport or government-issued identification to avoid travel complications.
