    I have just done exactly the same thing - my surname is Henson and in a rush i typed Hensn for one of my children.

    After calling 0800 408 5597 and being on hold for 56 minutes before answering - they changed it within a matter of seconds.

    I have even just received email confirmation with the new booking and can print off new boarding passes.

    Not sure why you have been charged but i definitely didnt have anything to pay.

    Hope you get it back as its a bit unfair for you to be charged and others not.

    I did book a holiday package over £4k with them and not just flights so not sure if that made a difference.

    Did you realise the error immediately and ring them?

    If so, that may be why you weren't charged but the OP was.
    Don't know the timeline to the OP's situation but he/she does say the error was noticed when they were printing boarding passes.

    Jet2 make more, pro rata than any other European airline, from extras over and above the flight ticket. Aprox 29% of income comes from extras over and above the initial fare. Higher than both Ryanair and Easyjet.
    3rd highest in world in fact ( pro rata %)

    I do not have problems with them now, I avoid them, it's the best way. Their bad practices reported on here must loose them lots of bookings.
