So I was able to book our train from Santiago back to Madria this morning through Renfe! (Yay!)

My question is once I finished and printed out the tickets I noticed that on one of the tickets it listed my surname behind my friends first and last name. How big of a deal is this? Do I need to go back through and correct it?

We were only asked when we used our Sr Discount online (Tarjeta Dorada) and that was to verify our age. I'm not sure if they really looked at names.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Occasionally, the person (or people) doing security at the train station may ask to see your passport before you can walk to your train car. It's only happened to me once out of at least a dozen train trips.

You can probably ask at the train station ticket office before you depart.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Thanks for the replies! Her full name is on it, I think my computer just also auto generated my name as the second surname also.
