Travelling with 2 passports (different spelling)

Upvote:1

The airline needs to check your passport for two purposes:

  1. To positively identify you to ensure that your name matches the booking;
  2. To ensure that you have the proper documentation to enter the destination country.

It sounds like in your case, you may need to show both passports to the airline on checkin. One passport will satisfy the identification requirement; the other will satisfy the arrival requirement.

Today it is not unusual to have more than one passport. The airline should be fine with this.

Presented both passports at check-in and was denied boarding because of different spelling in the passport. True story. Had to buy another ticket. After some hassle fixed the spelling issue.
