If you\u2019re hoping to sit with friends or family, you can reserve seats in advance for a fee of \u00a320, so you won\u2019t be split up during boarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/flying-with-children\/\">flying with children<\/a> younger than two, there&#8217;s an additional charge of \u00a325. This way, you travel with the child on your lap, and the arrangements are in place for a smoother journey. You can bring an extra baby-changing bag (45 x 36 x 20 cm), but this has to go under the seat in front of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those looking for a bit more comfort, front row seats or over-wing options with extra leg room are a good choice. However, these don\u2019t have a fixed price. The cost can vary depending on the specific flight, demand, and availability. It\u2019s worth checking early if you have a preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"baggage-fees\">easyJet Baggage Fees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to baggage fees, things get a touch more complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cabin bags can weigh up to 15kg.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A small cabin bag must be no more than 45 x 36 x 20 cm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Large cabin bags have a maximum of 56 x 45 x 25 cm, fees apply.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Every customer is entitled to take one 45x36x20cm cabin bag on board free of charge. These measurements include handles and wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>easyJet Plus members and customers who\u2019ve booked an Inclusive Plus fare can take a large cabin bag (56 x 45 x 25cm) on board for free. This can be in addition to a small cabin bag, but the maximum number of cabin bags is 2 for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can purchase your hold bags during booking, or in advance of your flight. They can weigh up to 15kg, 23kg, 26kg, 29kg, or a maximum of 32kg. If you arrive with a bag that isn\u2019t pre-booked, there\u2019s a \u00a355 bag drop fee at the airport. If your bag is pre-booked but heavier than the weight you purchased in advance, there\u2019s an excess weight fee of \u00a312 per kilo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we reached out to easyJet, they confirmed there was no flat rate for hold luggage, but that it depends on your route, flight and time of booking. It&#8217;s best to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/how-to-make-baggage-lighter\/\">keep your bag light<\/a>, and measure it in advance to avoid fees at the airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cancellation-charges\">easyJet Cancellation Charges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide you don\u2019t want a flight within 24 hours of your booking, you\u2019re able to cancel your booking for a cost of \u00a349 online or \u00a355 via phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-rounded is-style-rounded--2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"easyjet aeroplane\" class=\"wp-image-22274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.skyparksecure.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/winston-tjia-5f8BugEAz54-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@winstontjia\">Winston Tija<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/a-close-up-of-the-side-of-an-airplane-5f8BugEAz54\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you leave it longer than 24 hours, you won\u2019t be able to get a refund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"booking-changes\">easyJet Booking Change Charges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to change your details or the flight you\u2019ve booked, fees vary based on the specific thing you need to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve done our best to explain each fee below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Charge<\/th><th>Online Cost<\/th><th>Call Centre Cost<\/th><th>Explanation<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Rescue Fee<\/td><td>\u00a3110<\/td><td>N\/A<\/td><td>If you miss your flight but arrive at the airport no more than two hours after your original flight&#8217;s scheduled departure time, you can transfer to the next available flight.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spelling Mistakes &amp; Title Changes<\/td><td>Free<\/td><td>Free<\/td><td>Spelling errors are free to amend.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Name Change<\/td><td>\u00a360<\/td><td>\u00a365<\/td><td>Transfer your booking to a different passenger.

Smaller bags can go under your seats, where larger ones will go in the overhead lockers. Hold luggage is stored in the plane\u2019s hold, to be collected at Baggage Claim.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1777387914864\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I take a rucksack and a small cabin bag on easyJet?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, but it depends on your ticket type. Standard easyJet fares usually include only one small cabin bag (which must fit under the seat in front of you). If you want to bring both a rucksack and a larger cabin bag, you\u2019ll typically need to add a paid cabin bag option or have a seat upgrade that includes overhead locker space.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1777387915660\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does a handbag count as hand luggage?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. easyJet treats a handbag, small backpack, or laptop bag as your single small cabin bag allowance.

This is often more expensive than pre-booking luggage, so it\u2019s best to check your bag size carefully before travelling.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1777387973504\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I take a camera bag with my hand luggage?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A camera bag can be taken as your small cabin bag as long as it fits within the size allowance.
