Landing Fee

Post by MorGrendel »

So I just booked a flight and buried in all the fees I saw a "landing fee". Do I get a refund if the plane does not land? Can I opt out and use a parachute option? How long until you book that discount flight, and then somewhere over the Pacific an attendant comes through and collects you landing fee as she hands you a ratty pair of headphones?

Also on a strange note, I'm sitting in seat 1A on the flight back. When I asked if that was first class (because I know work ain't springing for that) the travel agent just laughed. Am I flying myself home?

Either Ticket Master learned it from the airlines or vise-versa. I but tickets for a show and saw a charge for processing of $9.00 per ticket and I was cussing at that and said okay I will pay it. Then when I went to check out they added a $7.00 convenience charge as well. Mother f#*&3rs!!!

Just so you know, Airlines are going to start charging for the second bag now. That means guys are good, but everyone else is fucked.
