The airlines have been very innovative in managing to keep these charges in one form or another for quite a long time. They will continue to be so.
"I will believe it when I see it."
What gripes me even more is the £10 charge for in line check in. Something which probably costs less than a penny and is obligatory. This kind of charge should be in the "come on " price of the ticket.

One of the charges in a list published today in the press today was shown as £3 per person per flight with a minimum of £4 ?
Things like that accounting make me sick is not in anyway transparent. Another was shown as 3.9% of a booking with a minimum charge.
Needs stopping.
