I was married almost 2 years ago. I legally changed my name but did not change it on my passport. If I have my maiden name drivers liscense and book the tickets in my maiden name will i have a problem???

DW had the same issue last month when we went to aruba...

as long as the name on your passport matches the name on your ticket you are fine...

I agree with the PP

As long as the name on the ticket matches the name on your passport you'll be ok.

I have the reverse-i changed my name on my passport but not on anything else yet. I booked my trip in March under my married name to match my passport.

Re: Passport name change

I'm right in your boat. I do everything under my maiden name and it's been fine. Which reminds me, I really ought to change this!

Re: Passport name change

The state department doesn't know or care if you are married. They only care about the name in your passport.

So if you book an international flight, make sure you use the name that is in your passport. Case closed.

I got married almost 5 yrs ago and have used my passport several times since I was too cheap to do the name change. I just always booked in my maiden name and had no problems whatsoever.
