The AY check in desk won’t check her in until the travel agent changes this. The agent says if she was just flying to HEL it would be fine but The Australian authorities are stricter so she won’t let her fly until it is changed. The final leg is BA SIN to SYD. She is trying to sort this now with the travel agent. Does this sound right that she can’t fly? It is fairly obvious that the name is correct!
Dont even think this is an error it just happens sonetimes with long names unless they actually entered miss as part of the first name instead of title.
