Name Change Policy – Can I Change The Name on The Ticket

No! And no swapping of passengers

In line with Turkish Airlines’ regulations, all flight bookings must feature a valid first name, middle name, or last name that is the same as on the passenger’s passport or other government-issued ID. If your booking is confirmed your name change is not possible after it is confirmed. So, make sure to get it right the first time, folks!

We understand there may be times when a switch of passengers needs to take place. Unfortunately, this isn’t possible. In such a case, the best thing to do is to cancel the flight booking, process a refund, and then re-book – but this time, with the new passenger in mind!
