Any way to get any £££ back or change flight with Jet2? ADVICE NEEDED!

sars_22

To cut a long story short myself and another friend were meant to be flying to Malaga on 27th July to spend 5 days in Marbs on a friends Hen do. We've paid £210 each for our flights.

We are no longer going as the friend that is getting married slept with someone else at another friends wedding in Greece and tried to snog the groom at the same wedding. Needless to say we didn't think it now appropriate to attend the upcoming nuptials or to attend the hen do. Plus I will no longer be welcome as the now ex-friend is not taking responsibility for her actions and claiming she can't remember anything and all she knows is what I've told her (making it sound as if I did nothing to stop her)

So does anyone have any advice on how we can get our money or any of it back? Or if Jet2 would change my flight to Corfu where my best friend lives? So annoyed might lose £210 due to someone else's indiscretion!!!!

From the T&C:

"We do not allow any requests to change your point of departure or destination. If you wish to change these by making a new booking then you will forfeit all monies paid."

You can change the date or transfer your ticket to someone else. There's a fee of £35 per person per way plus any difference in fare. If you decide not to use the ticket you can claim back any taxes paid though Jet2 may charge a fee to process the refund so it might not be worth it.

Are you saying that the friend cannot remember sleeping/having sex with somebody.
Must have been exciting sex for both people if so.
Glad I can remember all my partners and episodes.
Have never woken up in wrong bed yet.

It was more of a case of hmmmm shouldn't of done that and maybe I should pretend I can't remember as we werer telling her she should NOT be getting married!!!

And apparently I'm being nasty because I want my money back for my flight!!!!

This is what I thought and I very much doubt they'll make any exceptions...
Could I put the flights on eBay?

You could but I doubt it would be worth the hassle for you. You'd have to sell at more than £140 not to make a loss, assuming the buyer would want to change both name and date. And that's not even taking into account Ebay's fees. Then there's also the problem of any increase in fare which would be hard to account for in the sale.

I'd look into flying as planned and travel somewhere from Malaga.

The great thing about Malaga Airport AGP is that there are lots of places to get to from there, you could go to Granada instead of Marbs for instance, it is an easy trip.

Thanks for the help everyone... Unfortunatly £££ having to pay for more accomodation is not viable... So I think it will be one of those things...

Is any of the accomm in Marbs refundable or transferable to another hotel in the same group or something?

sars_22

No it's been privately booked.

Does her fiancee know what she's been up to?
