Do you mean you booked as "Mrs X" and you're "Mr X"? or something similar?

Did this for Mrs. UK_Canuck (called her a Mr.) on an LH flight last month. Called LH and they said it cannot be changed and it will not be a problem... and it wasn't

You could always argue that the operation didn't go too well so you don't quite look and sound the way you had planned. Then accuse them of discrimination.

Same happened to us. No problem. Weird, but true.

Ditto for Mrs Koryo: her AP profile had the wrong gender and wrong middle initial, no problems whatsoever (domestics only)

Go through the process of amalgamation and logic.. My subconscious undertands, but my consciousness doesn't.

I impersonate my wife calling the banks/credit card companies/insurance companies/AC all the time, and vice versa too. No one has asked my why I have a male voice because I can answer all their verification questions.:p

I usually get my girlfriend to impersonate my wife's voice...no one has ever noticed (I think) :D:cool:

Whose gender got screwed up, so to speak?

Maybe cases where members mistakenly are booked as females can allow FT to claim more female members. ;)

This could be a problem with the TSA's enhanced screening procedures, if they do not find the right kind of "junk".
