Well I'd do exactly the same. As Carl Douglas says 'You never know how many visits to the buffet you will get so make sure you get a big plate full when you get there' Good luck to her.

Re: Bloody money grabbers!!!
Well, I feel as if I've been ripped off today.
I had a phone call at 9am this morning (I was having a lie-in) from my daughter who has been spending a week on the Algarve in Portugal at the home of her old schoolfriend). My daughter doesn't have a credit card as she's a student so I usually book her flights on those 'budget' airlines.
I had mistakenly booked her flight from Faro to Gatwick - to be on the same flight as her friend Ruth - for Monday evening instead of Sunday (tomorrow) and as they're putting their dogs in kennels and locking up the house, she needed to return to LGW with Ruth.
With Ryanair you just pay 25 pounds to change an existing booking (as we've just done that for our Summer hols). I phoned Monarch Airlines and was told that I would have to pay 115 Euros to change the booking.
Grrrrrrr.
I had to agree to it, but then I found out info about Monarch Airlines here (scroll halfway down the page):

I wouldn't bloody pay for flights with this airline next time!
