Basically all the budget carriers are taking on what tiger airways did and add a handling fee for using the web. they are charging the customer for not employing staff and making you wait hours for a phone connection. this is a great model and is almost a fee for not having a fee.

whoever cam up with this kind of structure is a genius in digging as much out of the customer as possible.

base fare value added tax = (88 + 88 + 350 + 350 + 15) x 12% = 106.92
i have no idea about the other 1
