Moving Easyjet flight to UK tax refund

niallmitch

Searched for an answer to this one, sorry if previously covered. 
Have 2 cheap flights booked Bristol to Fuerteventura in November, cost around £150 of which £52 is tax.
With a free change allowed, l thought i would change them to Bristol to Inverness next year. Cost of the flights is the same but in theory they should repay the tax element as no APT on internal flights?
I think i should get this refunded, reality may de different though obviously
Am i barking up an empty tree?

where are you seeing £52 tax? APD does apply on domestic flights
if you search Bristol to Fuerteventura return on the Easyjet site the price breakdown shows the fare including 

Government taxes

£13.00

Bristol Inverness return shows  Government taxes

£13.00

There is no APD on the flights departing Inverness (you can see if you picked Bristol to Glasgow return, the government tax shows as £26 - 2 x £13)

Depending on where you are flying too. Ticket prices will include security charges, landing charges, environmental fees etc all of which EasyJet will pass on to the relevant overseas authorities. .
