They are, really, jacking up the prices for the cheap seats who can probably least afford it. $22 in fees on top of a $30 ticket vs. $22 in fees on top of a $200 ticket...
    That's probably the point. If they charged a direct $52 for a ticket more people might think twice about buying. Make the ticket cheap, sounds like a bargain. Go ahead, buy - then see the "fees." I call it deceptive but every business in the world gets away with it now.

      PITA, still canīt believe how many fuel surcharges there still are. Some days it argravates me so much (and I am on the no call lists), that IF I get a call, that either isnīt covered by that, or ignores that, I ask them for their payment iformation, for the convienence fee of getting me. They still wonīt allow me to have the 1-900-(censored)off as my phone number, and LEAVE that one OFF the no call lists (call me please, at only 9.99 a minute, rounded up)
