Fuel Surcharges!!!!!!

[louloz]

has anyone heard that airlines are putting up their fuel surcharges???

Is anyone else annoyed, like myself?? Apparently the extra surcharge will be passed on to customers , even if they have already paid for their holiday, and fly from july onwards!!:redconfus

This has really made my blood boil:angry:

Does any 0ne else have any information on this??

It was mentioned on the TV news this morning, but I've not seen any detail, although this is on the BBC News web site http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7425631.stm

Unfortunatley from a contractual point of view I don't think there's anything we can do about it.:thumbsdow

There was a small article in The Metro about it; BA are increasing their surcharge from £13 to £16. It's not a huge increase, but I agree that it's the principle of it really.

Unfortunately, fuel has gone up so much recently that it's pay up or face cancelled flights.

Just reading the paper suggests that it is for new tickets as opposed to those already bought.
