Booking easyjet flights - child not born yet

Hi

We are expecting our first child in June. I was hoping to book some Easyjet flights for a family trip to Amsterdam in October but obviously do not know the name / sex of the baby yet. Does anyone know if we can add an infant at a later date? If not, if we make up a name now how much will it cost to change at a later date, given that there is a flat £20 fee for an infant?

Thanks

    I've emailed them but just got a message saying it might take a long time to reply due to something happening in France (didn't pay attention to details). I don't really want to spend goodness knows how much on phone call

    About 2 years ago i was advised to put Mst TBA (to be announced) I then phoned up after the birth and the child was added free.

    Not easyjet, but I've booked flights before both our children were born, with KLM, British Airways, South African and Kulula. In all cases I could phone them up after the birth to add the child as an infant to the booking without any issue.

    I was in this position last year. I got a response from Easyjet directly and they told me the best thing to do.

    Book the flight as normal for everyone excluding the unborn child
    Once born log on to the website and click on amend name.

    Change the title of the passenger to Mrs + Infant.

    There is no charge for this and then you will be asked to pay the £40 for the taxes on the flight.

    Worked for me no problem
