Single letter last Name !

Seems Southwest policy is not allowing a single letter last name ! What needs to be done if one has just one letter in their last name?

Are you trying to buy a ticket online? It would help to know what activity you are attempting and getting the error.

Book ticket online.. also called Southwest and even their agent could not do it and mentioned they have to add another letter.

Can it be your initial and then a space?

 

Also do you already have a rapid rewards account along with PreCheck or another other account that needs to match?

 

It would have to be consistent with your identification is the main thing, if there is another way to show it as middle name with last initial or something else that might work. 

 

Have you flown other airlines this way?
