Wrong billing address when booking flights
When I booked a flight, I accidentally missed a line in the billing address but the address is partially complete. Will it be any problem?
Best Answer
Billing address is strictly for billing. If they issued the ticket, you are fine.
For most vendors, the credit-card company gives them progressively lower rates as they collect more information, so if the vendor supplies your name and address, the transaction only costs them (for example) 1.8% but with the credit-card number, it's 1.9%.
Once you have the ticket, only your name (and, if they are feeling enthusiastic, your birthday) matters.

Answer 2
You should be fine. Generally the credit card is at least authorized at the time that you check out, so if the system required an exact match on the billing address it would have flagged as an error at that point in time.
If you want to double check you could always check your credit card account to see if the payment has gone through.
