Good thing that the surcharges apply to new tickets… I bought my six tickets in previous months
Do airlines have to raise their prices to match price hikes? It seems like if one airline chose not to raise its prices they would make money because everyone would flock to that airline.
Any insider information about upcoming summer airfare sales? I’m still holding out to purchase my end of July travel tickets to California. Prices right now are still more than $150 higher per ticket than they were last year.
Our group reserved tickets for an international flight months ago. When we went to pay the balance today, we were told that there would be an additional $200 per person fuel surcharge (on an already extravegantly expensive $1600.00 pp ticket) Is it legal to add this charge months after reserving and paying our deposit?
#1- where did you find info that surcharges apply only to new tix? I am trying to fight Continental’s current $200 pp fuel surcharge on tix reserved months ago.
