The first month will be normal price, renewals, if done within 28 days of expiry date of previous season will be subject to passenger charter discounts should they apply at the time.

From what I have heard boarding controls will be in place today.

If you had booked them together you would have been able to see if 2 singles are cheaper.

If you book separately cheaper tickets cannot be guaranteed.
