I just booked a trip to Dublin for the new wife and me. I'm stupid and just absentmindedly booked using her new, married, name forgetting that her passport is still in her maiden name.
Flying with Ryan Air and it looks like they want £110 to change the name on the ticket (2 flights and hotel for 3 nights was only £220 total)! Am I screwed and have just wound up paying over the odds for a cheap, shoddy city break or is there some thing I can do, or some way around it?
I'm looking into the possibility of updating the passport, but the flight leaves on 23rd and in order to arrange that, we'd probably need to pay extra and get to a passport office (if we could get an appointment) and that's likely to work out to be too much hassle and probably more expensive (though at least part of that expense would need to be incurred at some point anyway when she changes the passport later).
