Hey Guys, I booked a ticket through Internet today for DEL-GHY and back. I got a great prices. Rs 2500/- return fare. Now comes even the greater part. Appx Rs 2000/- in TAXES and Misc (Fuel Charge..etc). Now that's strange. Isn't it???? M paying almost a 100% tax . Let me know your views abt it. Cheers Shivendra
You mention that you got Rs 2500. as the return fare, which is good. The taxes including fuel surcharge one way add upto around Rs 995. (Rs. 750 fuel surcharge plus Rs 225 govt. taxes). So, the total tax amount for a return ticket would be roughly Rs. 2000.
This whole business of surcharges and taxes and fees is going out of control. Needs some co-ordinated effort by passengers, and very soon, maybe we can use our forum as a launch pad?
