Can I cancel Jet2 Flights and get full refund

Options
I booked return flights to Cyprus next month a few months ago and I have just checked and they have seats available on the same flights but are cheaper.
If I cancel and rebook will I get a full refund from Jet2, obviously just a bit worried as I don't want to lose my money

    Is it a scheduled flight?

    If so then if you cancel you'll get no money back.


    Things that are differerent: draw & drawer, brought & bought, loose & lose, dose & does, payed & paid

    I am not aware that flights on those budget airlines can be cancelled. Are you sure you can cancel?

    no,  as per the terms and conditions you will have agreed to when booking

    28. Cancellation by you
    28.1
    If you decide to cancel your whole booking or to cancel an individual passenger in your party, we do not provide any refund and strongly recommend all people travelling put in place appropriate personal travel insurance from the date of booking.
    28.2
    We strongly recommend all passengers travelling put in place appropriate personal travel insurance from the date of booking. Jet2.com offers personal travel insurance to cover you whilst on your holiday and also cancellation cover should you be unable to travel. Customers can purchase a policy on-line via the link on the “Travel Extras” page on our website or by visiting www.jet2insurance.com.If you need a statement of non-travel from us for insurance purposes we will provide this free of charge. 
    28.3

    To avoid losing your money altogether, we recommend you consider changing the name on your booking to someone else who can travel in your place and/or to consider changing the dates of travel in accordance with clauses 25.4 - 25.6. For more information on how to make a change please read our FAQs on www.Jet2.com .


    Flight prices go up and down, some full service airlines offer a choice of ticket types including expensive refundable tickets but jet2 do not. 

    Book when you are happy with the price and don't look back

    If they allowed that there would be a never ending spate of people cancelling reservations in order to get a refund then rebook at the lower price.

    Why torture yourself by looking at prices after the event? You win some, you lose some. Fact of life

    OP, if the price had increased would you have wanted to pay Jet2 the difference?  As RavingMad says above, don't torture yourself by checking prices after you have made your purchase.
