Airlines are changing rules: how much will it cost to correct an error in the ticket.

According to The Sun:

Low-cost airline Ryanair allows name changes up to 24 hours before the flight departure time if done online, and for two hours if changes are made at the airport check-in.

Both options incur a fee: £115 on the website and £160 through an agent.

easyJet

The company easyJet also allows changes to names, permitting passengers to correct titles and spelling mistakes of up to three letters free of charge.

The airline takes a more lenient approach as there is no 48-hour restriction after booking.

Thus, if you make a spelling mistake in the name when booking a plane ticket, should that disaster occur, you have the chance to edit it for free if you are flying with easyJet. But if you chose Ryanair, be prepared to pay for this service.
