Wow.  To change the names on the flights is going to cost £303.  We also can't change date far enough ahead to be able to go.

We can claim airport taxes back though, which is just under £60.

Looks like we take the knock on this one. 

Thanks to all for responding.

p.s. Arthur, I tried to send you a personal message but as I am new it had to be authorised so thought it was easier just to respond here.  Thanks for your interest.

Thanks for all your responses. Sorry not to respond sooner but my daughter has been ill all week with croup so everything has taken a back seat. 

I might have guessed Sleazyjet would make it difficult.  Will have to look into it further to see if it is worthwhile or just take the loss.  I can't see us being able to go in the foreseeable future, certainly not in the next few months and I'm not sure how far ahead we would be able to change the booking to.

Arthur, thank you for your response.  I will find out exactly how much this is all going to cost and will send you a personal message to let you know if it is going to be worthwhile.

We may just have to take the knock on this one, although I really hope we don't.

Thank you everyone for your very good advice.

Hello all,

We were booked to go to our friends' apartment for the week of the school holidays but have had to cancel for personal reasons.  Unfortunately these reasons are not covered in our travel insurance.  We have Easyjet flights departing Gatwick on 25 May at 10.30 a.m. returning Tuesday 2 June at 16.30. 

The tickets are for two adults, a child and an infant (so only three seats not four).  I presume the child ticket could be upgraded to an adult ticket if necessary.  The flight is completely sold out.  Ticket changes cost £22.50 per change.  We paid £363 for all of them plus £24 for two hold bags.

I would like to recoup as much of the cost as possible but would be willing to negotiate on the cost if anyone is interested.

Thank you for reading.
