Easyjet Cancellation..Can i??

Hi Guys,
My ex wife booked an Easyjet return flight to Spain for my son who is 10 to go with the rest iof the family at Christmas time.
I am now having him over Chritmas in the UK but i said i would pay for the flight for him (if i had to if they were out of pocket) so suprise suprise she is saying the flight is £150.

Is there anyway of knowing if she can get the money refunded and or if i can contact Easyjet and see what they can do.
Thing is i wouldnt want to hand over the money then she booked she could get something (or all of it) back.
As a distant dad..every little helps.

I would appreciate your advice.
Cheers
J

    According to the easyjet website there is no refund due: http://support.easyjet.com/case-4057

    However I am sure that I have seen on here before that you can claim back the APD tax? I may be wrong but hang fire and see if anyone else can assist you.

    She will have an email confirmation of the price - let her give you a copy.


    You could go on their website and price the ticket yourself.

    Wouldn't that just show the current price which would not necessarily be what the OP's ex paid for the flight?

    I agree that it should be pretty easy for her to prove what she paid for his ticket.

    It will give an idea of price bearing in mind prices may well be more expensive at Christmas.
