When booking a flight through JustFly, it’s important to ensure that the passenger’s name exactly matches the name on their passport or government-issued identification. Even a small spelling mistake can cause check-in delays or boarding issues. Understanding the JustFly name change policy can help you correct eligible errors before your scheduled departure.
As an online travel agency (OTA), JustFly follows the policies of the airline operating your flight. While minor name corrections may be possible in certain cases, complete name changes or ticket transfers are generally not permitted once the ticket has been issued. Whether a correction is allowed depends on the airline’s fare rules and the type of ticket purchased.
This guide explains JustFly’s name correction process, eligibility, fees, required documents, and the steps to request a correction.

Can You Transfer a JustFly Ticket to Another Person?
No.
JustFly generally cannot transfer a ticket to a different traveler because airline tickets are typically issued in the name of a specific passenger. If another person needs to travel, the original reservation may need to be canceled (subject to the fare rules), and a new booking must be made.
