Again on the API problem, I booked some further flights to Dalaman today with Easyjet and as soon as payment was made the website asked for my API so the problem must be with existing bookings. Fortunately my passport details were already contained in drop-down option boxes to 'use previously supplied details' so it looks as though Easyjet have added my API to my previous booking as requested

Yes i think you are right because I booked early the rules were not out then but some who booked just after me the API info came out. Sorted now as I have an e-mail comfirming they have the info.

Thanks Saral

I have booked flights with easyjet for myself, husband and son. Due to a change at home I am unable to fly, but my husband and son would still like to fly, but return earlier.

I think if I cancel my flight I am not due a refund and will incur a charge to cancel. Would it be possible for my husband and son to travel without me, even though my name is the lead name on the booking.

I would phone easyjet but they charge 65 p per minute.

I think you really need to speak to Easyjet. You could email them and explain? The problem with making changes to your flight dates in the case of your husband and son is that the airline will charge today's prices for the new flight rather than the price paid originally. Is there any possibility that you could claim on your insurance for the flights (depending of course on why you are unable to travel and whether this is covered by your policy) and then re-book new flights for your husband and son?

Your husband and son can definately travel without you, I had a booking for 3 people and in the end only 2 travelled. You will need to check with EJ to see which is the best way about changing the return flights.

If you email Easyjet they usually get back pretty quick, at least they have whenever I have done it. I can't see any problem in them travelling without you.

I agree, email is answered very quickly in my experience

Hypoxic Harold: Hubby and I have never had the problem of food running out when we've flown with Easyjet. Maybe we've just been lucky or could be that we make sure we et to aiport before check in opens so are in first boarding group A which means we usually sit near front of plane. Thanks for the warning though.

Do you have to print out email confirmation or can you get away with turning up at check in with the flight details and booking reference number written down on a piece of paper? Printer at home is out of ink and saving the email onto pen drive and printing it off in libray is going to be hassle and they charge 20p page.

Also, will my hubby be allowed to listen to music on his ipod itouch or are they banned due to having wireless in them? Listening to music doesn't need the wireless to be switched on, I think the wireless is only used when he's using it to go on the internet. Neither of us know how to disable the wireless completely. Also the itouch and iphone look very alike so thinking that cabin crew might think the itouch is an iphone?

cate_taylor,

All you need is your passport / photo ID and booking confirmation number as everything is held electronically. It's easiest just to print off the confirmation email but if you've no ink, just note down your reference in case you need it. You can use an Ipod but the wireless adapter must be disabled. If cabin crew are unsure, they'll ask.

Thanks dazbo, the itouch has the wireless bit for connecting to the internet built in which is why I'm thinking hubby might not be able to use it even for listening to music which doesn't need the wireless.

This is a question for anyone with two children. We are flying with easyjet this year to Bodrum and I assume the plane will have 3 seats on either side of the aisle. So if you have two young children would you think it best, given the choice, to sit in 3 seats on one side of the aisle and 1 seat the other, or two seats either side of the aisle leaving the window seats free? We have never flown Easyjet before and this is the first time we have 4 seats now our youngets is 2.

I don't want to be selfish by leaving two odd seats but I'm not sure what would be best for us as I would be the one with the two little ones while my husband would be alone the other side of the aisle. I know it doesn't really make a lot of difference and we may just have to take what's available, although we do have speedy booking.

I don't want us to be dithering about on the plane annoying everyone so I though it best to have a plan before we board

You are making the assumption that the plane will be full. If that's the case I'd go for the three on one side alternative. But in any event, with 2 kids on a flight that long your first objective ought to be getting close to the toilets!

You are probably right there Steve!

I think the flight will be full as we are going in August.

Hi Kedi
When my two were younger we used to do 3/1 - kids could play games together and amuse each other during the flight. Nobody else got disturbed by them wanting toilet etc as occassionally you find other passengers very intolerant of younger children and make no attempt to disguise it! And you'll still be able to have a convo with your hubby across the isle too.

Sound advice Kimi, As a miserable old git who has travelled with his kids it is more considerate to other passengers to have the two children on one side with Mum or Dad and the first seat across the aisle thereby leaving two seats together, however good the kids are for some one to have sit on the inside is imo hardly being fair. no offence intended.

Dave

Well that's what I was thinking too Dave. I think we will go for 3 and 1 and then me and my husband can take it in turns to be with the children. At least we also get a window seat that way to!
