    Thanks comeandgo, but I can't see how to get to Easyjet.cz (or whatever the Easyjet Czech website would be). If anyone know or has a link so that I can try, that would be most helpful.

    https://www.easyjet.com/cs

    However, there are often opportunities to use easyJet's exchange rates to your advantage, without changing to the other country site.

    Put in a PRG-STN flight at a random date before you want to fly. This will start the pricing off in CZK. Add in your STN-PRG and PRG-STN legs, then delete the first random leg. The currency will remain in CZK and you can compare it to the price in GBP you would get using the "normal" method.

    I had the same idea but alas, when you remove the first flight, the flight from PRG jumps back up in price. I checked a couple of routes and there's a premium added if you book a one-way flight starting in a non-UK country (as opposed to that flight being part of an itinerary starting in the UK). It is not explained by the admin fee alone.

    One flight includes £15 booking fee,2 fights booked together include a £15 booking fee........so removing one increases the cost of the one remaining flight by £7.50

    But the increase is much more than £7.50 in the cases I mentioned above. Again, the price difference is not covered by the admin fee.
