Is the $35 fuel surcharge included in the price of a ticket purchased after March 27th?
the ticket was booked at a travel agency on 03/29/08, on the same day, the selected tour operator indicated its cost on 04/10/08 (with some note about SPO148) and an advance payment was made. Today we received confirmation of our booking from the tour operator and an electronic notification about the additional payment of a fuel surcharge of $ 105 (for three) ... Is this legal or another scam for a sucker ?!

You know, this is the first time I've heard of this! if there is any allowance, then you should have been told about it when you made an advance! Although anything is possible!

this innovation for Ukraine was introduced by tour operators from 03/27/08, so the essence of the issue is that the cost of the tour operator was indicated on 03/29/08... why didn't they take this extra charge into account right away?!

I explain. Tez tour, and after it other tour operators (so far, except for Pegasus - maybe he is today) introduced a fuel surcharge - for Egypt 35, for Turkey - 20 dollars per ticket. This is valid for all special offers issued before 03/27, for all bookings booked after 03/27, as well as for all old bookings booked earlier but not paid before 1.04 i.e., whenever you booked, if it was the old one. SPO - you pay extra. The travel agent HAD to warn you!!!!

We flew to Egypt in November 2007, we were also charged a surcharge for fuel, only in the amount of $ 20, but we were warned about this before booking the hotel.

the surcharge was done correctly - it’s just that the surcharge about the surcharge comes only for the agency - all operators raised it, so this is not a scam, but just our moronic country

$35 for Egypt and $20 for Turkey per person. This is the first time in Ukraine. BUT the operators warned about it in advance. No one introduced it later. And does not apply to tours that are already paid for by the operator. Judging by the date and number of the SPO, you have TEZ. He sent out letters on the 25th, and entered from the 27th. Your travel agency should have known on the 29th and warned you. We have been warning our people since the 25th. Some managed to book before the 27th.

Previously, they paid $ 20, at the beginning of the year I read an article that since January 2008. fuel tax to Egypt rises to $50 per person... So everything is fine. Look for an article in Yandex.

Six times I was in Egypt, the last time I arrived 10 days ago and never paid this"surcharge ". I can't answer anything. Call another tour operator and ask: "Do they have this surcharge and what is it". Go to some legal website and ask that question there.
