Woman Gets Left Behind At Airport After Husband Got Her Birthday Wrong On Plane Ticket

TikToker Jaime Wystub called out her husband in a viral video after he boarded a flight and left her behind at the airport all because he'd entered her birthday wrong when booking their plane tickets.

A woman was stranded at the airport because her husband, who booked their flights to the same destination, entered her incorrect birth date.

As part of a security measure, a passenger's birth date must match their identification documents to ensure the passenger with a booked ticket is the same person boarding the plane, which wasn't the case for our weary traveler.


The victim in this embarrassing scenario, TikToker Jaime Wystub, a.k.a. @jaimewystub, put her husband on blast with a video she captioned:

"You win some you lose some."

"At the airport. Guess where my husband is?" Wystub asked before flipping the camera phone to show a plane at the gate.

"He's on that flight," she reveals.

Wystub continues:

"Guess where I'm not? Ask me why not?"
"He got my birthday wrong."

Here's the clip.

In response to a commenter who wrote, "I fear I would be the husband in this situation," Wystub admitted she would be just as guilty if the roles were reversed.

"Literally, same," she said, stifling a laugh. "That is why he booked it."

"Neither of us could be trusted."

One TikToker vented:

"Are we letting spouses book flights? When did this happen?"
"Next we'll be giving my children their birth certificates and passports. No thank you."

In response, Wystub explained:

"I'm gonna be on the next flight out. And it's for fire training—it's not a vacation so it's not like he just left me. He had to go."
"Life happens. Totally fine. Not a big deal."

When a user requested an "ex-husband update," Wystub said there wasn't one; however, she explained she was having an "absolute trip from hell" arriving in Dallas en route to Austin because many flights flying out of Dallas were canceled due to a tornado warning.

They also lost her luggage.

Eventually, her husband came through for her and made up for his gaffe.

"My sweet, not ex-husband, came and picked me up. He drove three hours to come get me, three hours back, and went to fire training today, so that's the update."

"Should be an interesting trip," she smirked, giving a thumbs up.

Afar magazine discussed the strict Transportation Security Administration (TSA) protocol of providing correct ID information while traveling.

In addition to providing the wrong birth date, a name typo or misspelling could prevent a passenger from reaching their destination.

The magazine writes:

"Inverting some letters or putting an abbreviated version of your name (such as Mike instead of Michael) won’t fly with the TSA and airline security protocols, as they need to ensure that the person boarding the plane is the same person who has the ticket and that they’re not on a no-fly list."

The outlet also noted that once an error is discovered after booking, most airlines don't allow passengers to make name changes on tickets without contacting customer service.

Corrections can be made by logging into your booking account and locating the section where you can edit passenger information. Calling the airline is another option.

If you're already at the airport, you can get in the customer service line and be prepared to provide a booking reference number and proof of the correct spelling of your name (a passport, a driver’s license, or other official identification.)
