Middle names are a bit of a tricky issue when it comes to traveling. I personally have not included my middle name on the majority of airline tickets and never thought anything of it.<\/p>

Until the time came to fly to Turkey and I was requested by Turkish Airlines to include my middle name on my flight from Newark to Istanbul<\/a>. I had more issues when trying to create a password on Turkish Airlines<\/a> but that was quickly solved.<\/p>

This had me thinking. Was it doing it all wrong? Did I always need to include my middle name?<\/p>

I did some research and it looks like many others had this same question<\/a>.<\/p>

The agent from Turkish Airlines assured me I would not be able to board if my ticket and passport did not match exactly, and this includes the middle name.<\/p>

I was a bit reluctant to include it since I never had in the past but I agreed. I also became even more nervous when my ticket was printed “FirstMiddle Last”, showing no space in between the first and middle name.<\/p>
