  Let me guess: this is intentionally done to show up at the top of flights price low -> lists.

    Maybe, or maybe it’s to curb the law that force a refund in certain cases. You want a refund? It’s 64$.

  This is just silly. I recently saw Las Vegas hotels doing something similar though to a much lesser extent where it’s called “resort fees”. Should be illegal but it doesn’t affect me since I’m not traveling to the US

    For hotels, I’m wondering if this is a trick to meet a government rate.

    It’s not just Vegas. It’s also very popular in short-term rentals (like AirBnB) and other gig enterprises.

  OK. May we see the itemized list?

  source

  • NullPointerException@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    On the invoice it doesn’t seem so. Just 520$ per person. That link on the pic is just text.

      So literally no itemization, just $520.

      OK, that is indeed bullshit.

      volatile, unpredictable or fluctuating operating costs and fees

  What are their surcharges?

  • tdawg@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    I had a hotel charge me for “services.” Like bitch that’s in the price of the room!

    source

    • A_norny_mousse@feddit.org ⁨16⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

      That’s like renting a flat and being charged extra for doors.

  I recently did a return trip from Dublin to Boston and back. Each ticket was 1 Euro; rhe rest was airport taxes, government levies, etc.

  In the past, pre-covid, 1 Euro tickets were not unusual. Part of the reason why Ryanair became so dominant was that they contracted with secondary airports that had much lower fees, so the final price was below what the competitors could offer.

  • A_norny_mousse@feddit.org ⁨12⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

    Yes, Ryanair. But even they could itemize what you had to pay extra for. OP got this instead:

    0

    What confuses me is how these things can be “volatile” and “fluctuating” before they bought the ticket?

  *$64 and *$1040. You saved no time in typing it wrong and look stupid. It is even in the picture you took, all you had to do was follow; even a monkey can do that.

    Wow, you’re a pleasant person. Just a big bowl of rainbows and sunshine.

    You didn’t have to write this comment but you did and you look stupid. All you had to do was nothing. Even a monkey can do that.
