Different name in passport and on the ticket - Oneworld Explorer

Hi guys,
me and my soon-to-be-wife bought the RTW Oneworld Explorer tickets for our honeymoon: Oslo - Doha - Jakarta -Tokyo -Kuala Lumpur - Sydney - Vancouver -Dallas -Buenos Aires - New York - Liberia - Chicago - San Juan - Madrid - Oslo
The problem is I have put both her married and maiden name on the ticket (since she is going to change her passport in the middle of our trip, and name correction is apparently impossible while using some of the airlines, eg. Japan, American. There is no hyphen between the two names on the ticket. Do you think it is going to be problematic? We will have our marriage certificate etc. with us ofc. I have contacted Finnair (the issuer of the ticket) on this matter, but each of their consultants told us something different - from "it is impossible to fly on such a ticket, you should change your name to fit the one on the ticket" (sic!) to "it's not a problem at all, you don't have to do anything, we will just put some note in the system you contacted us on this".

I would be really grateful for any piece of advice
