Need4Speed Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Am I unique in thinking that airlines are being deceitful with their prices. When I buy a train ticket or ferry ticket online, I pay the quoted fare. When I go to buy an air ticket on line the £42 fare jumps to £130 because of taxes etc. Everything has taxes so why aren't airline honest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian R Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Ferries charge you a fuel surcharge as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I see what your saying it’s not right that they should be able to advertise one figure when its really another. I find looking at holidays on teletext is like this, you see a holiday for £299 for example ring up give your dates and it £599 I've never known it to be close to the advertised price. People like builders, mechanics also REALLY annoy when they quote and it never includes VAT. Just a way of making prices look better than they really are.

Soonto_HAS_soop Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 http://www.ba.com tend to include taxes into the prices quoted. Easyjet can have more in taxes than the flights themselves, just like Ryanair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Need4Speed Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 BMI are just as bad! I understand a fuel surcharge, but not when the flight being booked is only a week away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
