Fare Taxes
Original ticket: 5,361 USD 698.51USD
Ticket 2: 5,630 USD 788USD
Ticket 3: 4,981 USD 526.41USD
Is American messing with both my locked in Rand base fare deducting for each segment and then also with the base fare and taxes via exchange rate? I can understand the taxes being recalculated but the base fare should not be touched, it was locked in already. So if they keep converting the whole remaining value of the ticket base fare + charges into a lumpsum paid towards a new fare calculation I will continue owing them no matter what unless if the currency moves in my favor??
Which office issued these tickets? Was the fare quoted in USD or ZAR?
