Is there any problem if the last name prints first then the first name in international air ticket?

    ticket? boarding pass? emailed itinerary? What are you seeing and what did you expect to see or usually see? – Kate Gregory Mar 4 '14 at 18:59
  • I wrote them in reverse (first name in last name form and vice-versa) on a Ryanair ticket and boarded regularly. Maybe it just passed unnoticed, since everything was written correctly =) – Alessandro Da Rugna Mar 5 '14 at 16:31
  • Rahul, it will not be a problem. – Tismon Varghese Nov 25 '15 at 12:40

If you mean "Ms Jane Doe" getting reversed into "DOE/JANEMS" like the boarding pass below, that's completely normal:

As a Brit I use my married name, but on the Continent they address me by my maiden name or both names. So I got a passport with both names. My credit card has both names, but in a different order! So I often end up with tickets that have my names in a different order to my passport. This is never an issue, as I think airlines and security have to be aware that conventions vary so same names, different order has to be accepted.
