2. I should wait to add the middle name to my SkyPass account until after I finish all of the four flights on this trip, so as to avoid the risk of invalidating any of those flights or other hassles.
3. This means I may have to jump through a bit of a hoop for each of those flights (unless as others have noted, Korean doesn't care about missing middle names), but these are manageable.
Does all this make sense? Any other advice? Thanks.
They told me to submit the profile-update form on arrival at home, once all of my trips were over.
Until then, you should expect ICN check-in staff to correct and correction-stamp your boarding pass (at the very least) on your way out of ICN, or maybe it won't happen at all.
