Searching family groups together

One of the biggest problems searching immigration records/passenger lists is the spelling of names. It seems to me that quite often one knows that a whole family came together. When no results are found using one person's name (and variants thereof) it would be an immense help to be able to search for several first names together at once. This doesn't seem to be possible in Ancestry.com. Am I mistaken? Is there a way to suggest an improvement to searching capabilities such as this?
Thanks!
