Almeria 2010

[El Gordo]

1) It seems that we are entitled to a full refund from EasyJet:

You have to complete and submit a form:

http://easyjet.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/easy...er/ask.php (Make sure you choose the option "My flight was cancelled, I need a refund".)

You don't get instant confirmation that you'll get a full refund, never mind the actual cash, but at least I've logged the request.

2) I've booked on the Aer Lingus flight :

AER LINGUS EI907
Malaga 21:25 Tue 02 Feb 2010
London/Gatwick 23:10 Tue 02 Feb 2010

I went through the Aer Lingus website and got the flight for 34.99 euros which comes out at about £32.50. This is for no checked bags. Note -- you can get it for a couple of pounds cheaper at Opodo but given the small saving, I prefer to use the Aer Lingus site as you can go back and reserve your seat if you want, and make changes without any hassle. Trust me, it's better.

I don't mind the change really. I nearly booked this flight first time round because it's so much nicer travelling AL than EJ. It was only the inconvenience of the later time that put me off.

So, please do the same!

Edited PS -- Thanks again to LR for noticing this change. To be honest, the cancellation isn't very clear even now, so I may well have not seen it even if I'd gone to check that the booking was still OK! It's saved us a lot of potential grief nearer to the time.
