Cheaper holiday. Now.

Hi. I've just checked the same holiday as I have booked for august to cuba with virgin holidays. And found it is now £350 cheaper. So 1 can I challenge them on the price I paid. 2 cancel then rebook. 3 Change my original booking slightly, as if I'm correct it's £40 admin fee to amend a booking. If so does flying 4 days earlier count as amending? Thanks

It's unlikely they will lower the price for the booking you have now.

If you cancel and re-book you will loose your deposit.

Any change the involves a reduction in cost will incur a amendment fee.

Hmmmm I think this is called 'tough'. I was told that by VS a few years ago when I sent a tongue in cheek email re my flight going down after I had paid for it.

What would you say if the holiday was now more expensive that what you paid? Would you be phoning them up to volunteer to pay the higher price?

1 - you could ask but expect a no - you have already signed a contract and I assume paid a deposit.

2 - what does your contract say about cancelling and any penalties i.e. lost deposits. This might negate any 'savings'
