FLIGHTS
Q. Why are you asking for passport numbers, dates of birth and nationality when booking a flight with Easyjet to Spain?
A.

A new European Union Directive has just come into effect, which means that over the next 12 months all flights booked to European Union states, from the UK and Ireland, will require both the Passport number, Nationality and Date of Birth to be attached to the booking prior to travel. Currently, this information is only required for Easyjet flights to Spain therefore we are only requesting the information for these bookings.

This information must be provided for all passengers travelling, including Children and Infants.

Q. Some airlines charge for baggage, is the cost of hold baggage included in the price?
A. When booking with airlines that charge for the carriage of baggage flexibletrips include the cost of one bag in the price.
Q. What time should I check in for my flight?
A. It is recommended that you check in for your flight at least 2 hours before departure. And for a long haul flight 3 hours before departure.
Q. Are airline meals included in the price of my flight?
A. Most scheduled airlines provide meals. However, they are not included in the price of any no-frills flight e.g Easyjet, BMI Baby etc. and they can only be purchased on-board. With the majority of charter flights this is also an optional extra which we do not include in the basic price. If your customers are travelling with a charter airline and wish to purchase an on-board meal then please call us on 0870 750 1863.
