Please if any one has gone through this situation, i would be grateful for your help. Please suggest or comment.

Thanks

Strange, I booked tickets for myself and a colleague. By mistake I entered his surname beginning with a C instead of a K.

I called Executive Club and they changed it within a minute, no charge.
