AIBU to think they shouldn't be charging full room price for an infant?
Travel Republic charges this outright and Thomas Cook advertises one price, then when you go to pay, they show a discount for the infant, but the price for the adults is increased by an almost identical total as if the infant is charged full price. I think this is cheating. Anyone has experience of this? I have spent the day looking for a beach holiday and so far onthebeach.co.uk, Thompson and easyjet.com are the only ones who don't charge for an infant (just the flight). I am really frustrated!
. I will do just that!HairyPotter · 09/06/2013 22:09
They don't charge full price, it's usually £29 for infants. The problem is a glitch in the website, the price you see on screen is usually correct, unfortunately it divides it by 3 to work out an average price pp including the infant instead of just two adults. You could try pricing it just for adults to see how much it is and them again with the infant. It should only be a difference of £29 for short haul destinations.
No idea about travel republic though.
