I called and they actually did answer. Must be essential employees.

They said there is a “little bit of a space” but weren’t able to understand if it was a space or would be an issue. It’s low probability that both of my passports would have the same issue. I never had an issue until now but I’ll go back and look at my old passport to see if that had a space. Big pain to go to passport agency to get them reissued and likely won’t fix anything.

Even with that fixed I still likely would have the issue from AA and them duplicating my middle name. I don’t understand why all of a sudden having this issue. Ugh.
