Website price changes
Can anybody help?
I am trying to arrange a stag do to Spain (lucky me!), and in doing so found a cracking deal advertised on a website. I went ahead and booked this deal with the travel agent, by credit card, and received 3 confirmations from the agent. The agent has since emailed me notifying that they had made a mistake and the price should have been about 10x what I'd paid. They've since refunded my credit card and cancelled the bookings. I have booked flights on the strength of the prices advertised, and although I can probably get a refund from Ryanair, do I have any legal right to the agent honouring my bookings? Had the pices been advertised correctly in the first place I wouldn't have booked the flights. |

I have no legal information about this but I would think there are
conditions listed somewhere on the site where you made the bookings. From what you say, it looks like an honest mistake ??? and the refunded your credit card charge.. That is why travel insurance is a good idea. Why not look for cheap hotels on other websites??? E. Elena Hall, Co Director Blue Men of Morocco Co.
