    you will not be able to board if your ID doesn’t exactly reflect your details"

    Do they care about an apostrophe though? I can see any punctuation being a problem for systems.

      I had to convince people to let me on board a plane because my name contain a swedish letter (å). Their computer system translated it into “aa”, which then didn’t match my passport.

          No, my passport has my real name of course, with “å”. In the airport system and on the boarding pass my name was spelled with “aa”.
