Airline Ticket Advertised Prices and Surcharges
By Lance Winslow
Due to high fuel prices and often very rapid price spikes in fuel the airline industry at a severe disadvantage indeed. Due to various excuses that are used by bulk oil commodity traders or actual problems, which do severely impact fuel supply and the fact that the airline tickets are sold in advance; it does create a hardship for both consumer and airlines.
Supply spikes can occur for a number of reasons such as an impending show down with Iran over its nuclear weapons manufacturing and sponsoring of International Terrorism or the 2006 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season you see? It is for this reason that the subject came up and a moderator in an online think tank was asked the following question; “Are the extra surcharges that influence the price of airline tickets in the advertised price or are they included later?”
Occasionally, the airlines will find ways to make extra monies post ticket, for instance selling you rental of plastic ear phones for the in-flight money always seems rather interesting? Also there are issues with ".COM" ticket sales companies which sell you a ticket and then you find out later of a price increase, kind of a shocker for your credit card? That probably pisses off consumers.
It is not a perfect world out there and there are always lots of disclosures and "fine print" too that people often DO NOT read. "Check here if you agree to the terms?" Consumers need to be educated and understand these things so they do not get burned or feel they have been cheated. Do consider this in 2006.
