Moving easyJet Flights

Options
Hi, just a heads up, from paying the website price to move a flight, easyJet now charge a premium.  We are looking to change our easyJet flights from December to March (in the hope that the quarantine controls may be lifted by then).  We paid £300 for our December flights.  If we were booking NEW flights for March the cost is £380.  To MOVE our December flights to the same dates costs an additional £180.  So this plus the original £300 cost is £480.  A £100 premium?!  easyJet are trying to give the impression that they are doing their bit to help customers by waiving the fee to change a booking.  Just be aware what they give you with one hand, they are taking that and a bit more back with the other.  Would be happy to pay more if it kept aircrew in a job and the costs are transparent.  The above way of working, however, seems a bit underhand :(

    I believe they treat each flight as separate so you need to look at each leg separately for the cost difference (and no refund if the new flight is cheaper)
    eg if your £300 is made up of £150 outbound and £150 return leg
    new flights £330 outbound and £50 return leg you will pay a fare difference of £180 for the outbound leg and get nothing back for the cheaper return leg
