I've had fares where "taxes" are higher than the air fare.<br /><br />Some airlines/travel agents will give a tax breakdown. If you have a tax total with a string of letters and numbers (on paper tickets this appears near the bottom) then we can decifer and explain what it means. <br /><br />For example YQ is the code for fuel surcharges. All the taxes have their own codes.<br /><br />If you don't have a tax breakdown you can ask the airline or travel agent to give you one.The Global Travellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443399599300102944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21268368.post-76901285543392158232009-12-09T10:47:23.442-08:002009-12-09T10:47:23.442-08:00Global Traveler,
