When I called AA they are quoting GBP1,260.90. What am I doing wrong or is the Expert Flyer fare plus TAX?

Many thanks

Originating in DUB the fare should be quoted in Euros not GBP. And yes the EF fares listed are base fares, exclude taxes and fees. There is a 212 GBP YR surcharge (carrier/fuel surcharge) plus many small airport/customs/etc fees. Add it all up and the 984 GBP does turn into 1260 GBP final price.

ExpertFlyer is quoting the base fare only which is really rather unhelpful especially transatlantic where the fuel surcharges can be substantial.
