Welcome to FT!

It sounds like the ticket and passport (which is also your ID for this purpose) will match, because the name change will be too recent to affect either of them. In that case, nobody at any airport will know about your name change. It's not as if there is some universal database that records name changes and tells everyone. Fly under your old name. After your trip, get new documents.
