Excuse Me: Your Numbers Don't Add Up!


We bought tickets weeks ago for Cindy Lynn & Mahon to fly out after Christmas -- we were worried that prices would go up. (And indeed they have.) But I figured we could wait a while to buy the return tickets. Yesterday I realized that I had better get on the ball and buy tickets from NC back to Utah, because if I wait any longer they may just have to stay. (Hmmm...maybe my subconscious is working towards this end goal?)

Anyway, I was just online buying Cindy Lynn's ticket back. I of course chose the lowest price fare for this particular day: $124. (I love her very much, but I am still trying to buy the most plane tickets for my limited shekels.) I went through and put in all of the information, careful this time to make sure this time that her ticketed name is the same as the name on her drivers license.

At the very end it gave me the pricing information.
Ticket price: $115
Price after taxes & fees: $145
Um....doesn't it strike you as odd that $124 isn't even mentioned???
