Easyjet changed my flight, But my parking then became invalid too! Help

So Easyjet changed my flight from 06:50 at Manchester Airport in October, to 14:45 same day. Not a major issue, pretty annoyed but one of those things.
However, Manchester Airport would not change my parking "Meet and greet" at the airport, due to Ts&Cs stating that once booked it can't be changed. They can't accept me turning up so long after my booking so would not accept my car. I've had to book ANOTHER parking slot at £88. 

Can I get this money back from anyone? Easyjet? Insurance? Really need help on this one. Any advice would be good thanks!

  • I think for £88 I would have gone at the original time and just armed myself with a good book !

    They are supposed to give you at least 14 days notice and if they do then its basically tough luck, if they give less than 14 days then you can talk compensation.

    Assuming its the outbound leg you are talking about I would have turned up as late as possible for the original booking (blaming traffic etc) and had breakfast/gone through to the airport lounge as soon as possible etc.
  • Looks like I've lost out then. Damn. :( Oh well. Still got me holiday!

    Do Manchester airport operate the meet and greet or is it a third party?  You may have been trying to make a change or get a refund from the wrong people.
