Flights travelling after may 1st

I have just found out that for flights travelling after may 1st, you no longer pay tax for children aged 12 and under due to a change in government policy. If this flight was booked upto a year ago then you are entitled to that money back. We booked flights for the us and should get back over £100. Some airline automatically reimburse while others you need to contact them.

Thought it may be useful to some as I had no idea about this.

Thank you. My DM has mentioned this many times and I thought she was making it up - oops! Just emailed the holiday company asking how they are dealing with it - would come in very useful as it's been a real struggle to pay for it this year.

Thanks again.

Ah! thank you for the prompt. I think I've just got £142 back from Virgin which is very nice...
