Can u cancel a ryanair flight, my friend has just booked a flight for nov, but can't go as she has just realised.

    Right can she change the booking.

    she made a booking to fly to tenerife in nov, but can't go as her hubby is away that week.

    But she has now decided that she wouldn't mind going in march, the flights are a bit more expensive, would ryanair just change the flights, and charge them the difference, or would there be a charge for changing them.

    thanks

    When I cancelled a flight 2 years ago from Glasgow to London return I got my money back in full.

    Actually, sorry that was my mistake. We had a major change in flight times, thats the only time it is refundable.

    According to ryanair you can change the date/time.
    Can I change a flight date, time or route?
    Yes you can change your booking online up to 12 hours prior to scheduled departure of your first flight. Between 12 and 4 hours prior to your scheduled departure you can change your booking by contacting your local Ryanair reservations centre, subject to call centre opening hours, click click here.No changes to the flight date/times/route can take place once a passenger has checked in for a flight online.

    They don't cancel bookings now.

    I messed up a booking for wife and self, by entering my first name for both of us. I couldn't cancel and it costs £70 to change a name. It was far cheaper to abandon the booking for the wife and to make another booking just for her.

    It's stupid. That's a seat lost when someone else could have used it. And Ryanair won't make anything extra like on coffees from an empty seat.

    You can try but all you'll end up with is a) a large phone bill & b) paying even more for the new flight as the price has gone up while you were bartering
