Name mismatch
Hi All,
My Travel agent issued me a ticket with cathay pacific, and made a name mistake.
For example "john edward", he made a ticket with "jon edward" and told me that he has made the correction in the internal database, and shouldn't be a problem.
Should I be worry about this mistake? Is TSA tough on these things? because when they will issue me the boarding pass, it will have "jon edward" not "john edward".
Thanks
