The name on the the ticket is correct but using my middle normally used name on the passport as opposed to the passort first name which as I said I seldom use.
The point the check in girl made was that it had to be the first name on the passport or it would not be accepted.
This begs the question why is the first name ok and not the middle name and if I were to be asked a fee then it shouldn't matter what name is used, She also mentioned as an example Sean can not be used on the ticket if the passport has John. That I can understand though as you probably know Sean is the Irish version of John so that could raise another debate in some cases.
But we are still back to the question how can they charge a fee and accept something that they say is incorrect in regards to your ID.
