For a whole year, every worker waits for a long-awaited vacation. When this day comes, the question arises: where to go, where to relax? One way or another, our compatriots choose foreign resorts. Everyone has their own reasons for this.
In recent years, domestic tourists have become more savvy in matters relating to holidays abroad. However, many citizens still cannot understand, because of which the price of a ticket when booking is higher than the amount indicated by tour operators. In fact, everything is very simple. There is such a thing as fuel surcharge. So, the cost of this additional fee is far from always indicated by tour operators. To understand this issue, you need to understand what the fuel surcharge is. In simple words, this is a certain amount of money that a tourist is forced to pay extra to his formed package due to the rise in price of aviation kerosene.
A logical question arises: why tour operators do not immediately include fuel surcharges in the price? Everything is extremely simple. Prices for tours are formed a few months before the start of active sales. The key point of any trip is the transportation of tourists using air transport. For several months, the price of fuel for aviation can jump. It depends on world prices for black gold. As you can see, factors affecting the formation of a lot of tours. And this is not to mention the wrapping up of agencies. Despite the work of fuel market analysts, it is quite difficult to calculate the dynamics of a decrease or increase in oil prices. So it turns out that the tourist pays one amount during the booking of the tour, and a few months before departure he must pay from 40 to 100 dollars, depending on the policy of the carrier company.
Can I not pay the fuel surcharge? Yes, but the carrier may not give you a package of documents necessary for the flight, based on the fact that the full cost of the flight according to the agreement has not been paid. However, there are times when tour operators take all the fuel surcharges on themselves. This happens in a situation where the client made the full payment of the flight under the contract. If at this moment the fuel surcharge has increased, the tour operator should take all the costs.
The fact is that this additional fee is charged by almost all carriers. Beloved Turkey, which pleases with its democratic prices, a visa-free regime and wonderful places to relax, was no exception. Our brother just loves to soak up the Mediterranean Sea, walk along the ancient streets of Antalya. A tour to this country can last from three to 30 days. Be that as it may, in the cost of the permit, of course, you will have to add fuel surcharge to Turkey. Since 2012, the size of the surcharge will be about $ 40 per person.
But the Transaero fuel surcharge to this country will cost a tourist $ 80. This airline is the first private carrier to start operations in 1991. The company's fleet includes modern aircraft that meet all international quality standards. The company carries out domestic flights, while providing high service and quality of service. The fuel collection of the company, depending on the directions, varies in price. It all depends on world oil prices. Transaero is the only domestic airline that provides its customers with four classes of service.
All of us have become hostages of world prices, which dictate politics in various fields. Despite all the surcharges and markups, with the right choice of tour, a vacation will seem like a paradise. It is just necessary to study this issue in detail and draw the right conclusions. Informed means armed.
