Hi
I suspect I know the answer to this, but if I move a booked flight to one where the actual price is lower than what I have already paid, do I get a refund for the difference?

    from their website " If the new fare is higher you will be required to pay the fare difference. No credit is given if the new fare is lower."

    Thought so. I'll be booking extra leg room, extra baggage and my golf clubs (I don't play golf)  :smile:

    I was in a similar situation recently, changing Easyjet flights from Easter to the summer. You also have to remember that both legs are priced separately so it takes quite a lot of playing around to find similar priced fares!

     Beware that Easyjet now also charge for trolly bags (or expensive seats to get the right to take on a trolly bag).

     On the positive in my case I found the price that Easyjet charged for the amended flights was the same as flights to new customers. On the downside I suspect if you change to cheaper seats and they are cancelled again I expect you'll only get refunded the cheaper seats (I have no proof of this)

    Luckily for me, I held of changing my flights and Easyjet cancelled them first =full refund.

    So why are you paying for the golf clubs ?

    I doubt “extras” will be included. Be careful or you may find you are having to pay for golf clubs you aren’t taking 😂
