Infant name (INFANT) when booking Bamboo Airways tickets (QH)

1. Is there a character limit for the name of a newborn?

Yes. Bamboo Airways limits the maximum to ~30 characters (including last name + first name + space).

2. What if it exceeds 30 characters?

The system will report an error and cannot create a ticket. The INF name needs to be shortened.

3. Why is there this limit?

Because the reservation system (PNR) only allows a certain name length.

When combining the father/mother's name and the INF name, it is too long → easy to cause errors.

4. How to handle when the INF name is too long?

Suggestions for abbreviating the name or removing the middle name, as long as it is still correctly identified with the documents.

Example: NGUYEN BAO NGOC MINH CHAU -> NGUYEN B N MINH CHAU
