What is “Carrier-imposed fees”? Isn’t the carrier the airline?

It would make more sense in the opposite order. The first tab with that headline breaks them down. Just under half of the total ticket price is a non-refundable ‘carrier interface charge.’

I guess I don’t get why the people selling you the seat have applied a fee from themselves instead of it just being part of the airfare.

So they can falsely advertise $20 tickets.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! When I worked at Verizon, I asked upper management “People ask me what these fees are all the time. What are they actually?” The answer was not a surprise: “We want more revenue without raising our prices.”
