Important Considerations

  • Time Restrictions: Name changes are not permitted less than 2 hours before the scheduled departure time.

  • Documentation: In certain cases, Vueling may request additional documentation to process a name change, especially if it's due to legal reasons such as marriage or divorce.

  • Third-Party Bookings: If you booked your flight through a travel agency or third-party website, you might need to contact them directly to request a name change.

Preventing Future Issues
