My name causes an issue with any booking

I don't understand why this isn't causing him serious problems travelling.

I'm also surprised this isn't a more widely recognised phenomenon, because whilst there are very few first names ending mr, there are quite a few more ending miss or ms.

Because people in the business are used to idiosyncrasies of the software systems and know that the goal is to exchange money for services, not to appease the program.

But, as the author notes, a system now has programmatic restrictions.

I thought as a joke that the API is so old, that they didn’t treat women passengers with the same formality. Well... that might be true. In the documentation linked, I see no example of “MS” or “MISS”.
