Hi All,
Had to change my flight booking today for our flights to Paris (en-route to DLP) with EasyJet in 2 weeks time, all I was doing was changing one forename (my Mum is coming instead of my Wife - personal problems!!!).
I expected to pay some form of administration charge which I guessed to be in the region of £20, but I nearly fell off my seat when it actually come in at nearly £114.
Not only are you charged £20 admin, but they also then charge the difference between the cost of the seat now and what you originally paid for it.
To be fair to EasyJet it is part of the Term & Conditions and was clear in the FAQ's but I still think this is a bit much, especially when the cost of the flights for 2 adults and 1 child was only £165 in the first place.
I suppose that's the price you pay with cheap carriers, none of the nicities of the larger carriers.
Does anyone know if other airlines have this practice?
Anyway, I'm not going to let it spoil my trip, but beware the pitfalls of booking EasyJet!!!
Cheers
