There are already fuel surcharge on US routes which explains why the final fare is always outrageous compare to the base fare. Wait for the day that they make us tip the flight attendants for serving us.

I'm waiting for a base fare from YYZ-LHR for $49 return ... plus $700 in surcharges and fees (airport fee, customs and immigration fee, navigation surcharge, fuel surcharge, food surcharge, crew surcharge, plane surcharge ...).
