I have my EAD and AP combo card... in my now married name (my maiden name hyphened with my husbands surname) .. .we married on July 4th heart.gif .

We are booking a trip home to see my family... and... to book airline tickets I need to put the name in my passport. I dont have a new one in my married name.. but my re-entry to the US requires the AP card.. and that is in my married (hyphened name!

Will I have problems if my airline ticket is in a different name to the visa name?

I've delayed booking... anyone else had this experience your help is appreciated.. please

You must use the name in your passport for international travel.

The EAD/AP in a different name is okay for US reentry. You can bring a copy of your marriage cert to prove name change just in case.
