that may be the case as far as TC are concerned but is it legal?? and also as no notice was given of there intention until the day it started therefore it is a clear case of up yours mr customer take it or leave it, back to rip off Britain once again, and as one has already said will the cost come down when he wholesale prices are reduced, if this is the case that the airlines hold out until pressured into dropping they prices like they did in 2008 we will still be paying these inflated prices for the rest of this year.
