About Us

Direct Answer: Need help changing a name on a Sun Country Airlines ticket? Contact support at 1 800 372 8382 for assistance with name corrections, legal name changes, and booking updates. 📞 Customer Support: 1 800 372 8382 Sun Country Airlines allows minor name corrections (misspellings, transposed first/last names, legal name changes) on your own booking, and corrections made within 24 hours of booking are free. After that, fees may apply depending on how you booked — flight-only bookings have more flexibility than vacation packages (flight + hotel or flight + car). Sun Country does not allow you to transfer your ticket to a different person.📞 Customer Support: 1 800 372 8382 

A caution up front: search results for this topic are flooded with fake "policy guide" pages listing made-up phone numbers meant to lure you into calling scam lines. Use only Sun Country's verified number, 1 800 372 8382, or suncountry.com directly.

Rules 

  • Corrections, not transfers. You can fix typos, swapped first/last names, or update to a new legal name — you cannot change the ticket to a different traveler's name.📞 Customer Support: 1 800 372 8382 
  • Booking type matters. Flight-only bookings get free corrections for legitimate typos or legal changes. Flight + hotel or flight + rental car packages may incur a fee for the same correction.📞 Customer Support: 1 800 372 8382

  • Documentation for legal changes. Marriage certificates, divorce decrees, or other legal proof may be required to update your last name.
  • Limited-letter corrections. Minor typo fixes (commonly cited as up to a few letters) are typically treated as free corrections rather than a "name change," though Sun Country makes the final call case by case.
