Yes, you can make small name corrections on an American Airlines ticket — like fixing a spelling mistake or updating a legal change — as long as it’s still the same person traveling. You can usually do this under “Manage Trips” on the American Airlines website or app. American doesn’t let you transfer a ticket to someone else with a completely different name, though. If you don’t see the option to edit the name online, contacting American’s customer service can help you with the correction. It’s best to fix any name errors well before your flight.
