Hi lifeline

Prices increase &, as time goes  on, often by a lot compared to booking first day of their release. (If they decreased what would be the point of booking early ? )

However Easyjet have a price promise http://www.easyjet.com/EN/Book/regulations.html#pricepromise if you've booked early then see it reduced (not in a promotion though) but you have to ring them on 0871 244 2366 Calls cost 10p per minute so can be expensive unless claiming a lot back & then the amount they "refund" is against a further flight within a certain time. I say if you know your dates book now from Bristol.

I've just checked & it would cost us £43 more (we booked three return flights for two at 1am today) if we were booking now !

Any easyJet passenger who has made a booking and subsequently finds that lower fares (when taken together with all applicable charges) for the same easyJet flight have become available will be refunded the difference as a credit against future flights on easyJet. The only exception to this is if the lower fares are part of a promotional offer. Please note that each Journey will be treated separately. This credit will be valid for use against bookings made within 6 months from the date of issue. It will expire at midnight on the expiry date and the validity of the credit file cannot be extended.

To qualify for a refund the fare must be still available for sale and must be for the same date, destination, and flight number.

If your price promise request is in respect of a booking that has been subject to a "flight transfer" or "name change" (see relevant paragraphs below), easyJet will not refund below the value of the original fare paid in the initial booking. All transfer fees and name change fees are non-refundable.

To make a claim the passenger must telephone our call centre on 0871 244 2366 (calls cost 10p per minute; calls from mobiles and other networks may cost more. For other telephone numbers visit the contact us section.) Claims made by fax, letter, or email cannot be accepted.

In my experience, Easyjet flight prices do not reduce after release & therefore it is worthwhile booking early. We paid £80 for Christams flights back in July & £57 for February half term.

However, Ryanair is a different matter as I wanted to book for Octoober half term & was watching the prices closely when suddenly one leg of the journey was reduced from £49.99 down to 79p.

I have to travel in school holidays so from my point of view, I know the dates I want very early & I think it is worthwhile booking so that I know that I have got the flights.

Having booked my summer 2008 flights this morning, I am happy with paying £86 (including speedy boarding) & can't really see that they would work out much less, even if they were reduced.

Have just booked my June flights £69 each, don't use speedy booking as we are always there early so normally get A or B, have booked one hold bag and they have doubled the price to £3.99 each way.  I suppose the only way around this is to book separate flights there and back as I will only require the bag on the return journey.

It always pays to check your booked flights whenever they announce a sale, our flights we booked for this June were reduced by over £50.  I rang and claimed the money back but unfortunately I rang a premium rate number I was given to book another flight using the credit, which reduced the saving as I was on there for some time.  All the booking procedures have to be done via this number so ensure you have your passports to hand to give the operator your API.  Also find out the normal number to ring by looking at say no to 0870 numbers website.

Glad you got sorted.

As I have put in a post on a different thread - We booked flights back in July for 20th - 30th December at a cost of £80 each. Today they are selling for the bargain price of £349 each.

Say no more

It certainly pays to book just as the flights are released.

I booked ours at 6.30 Friday morning & they are now £50 dearer.

We paid £347.88, that's £305.98 more. 30th November was first date of availability. I was fortunate to see flights come on screen within 1 - 2 hours of becoming available at midnight.
