LOL and LOL. And ^^

To shock everyone (ok, maybe not everyone), I buy Tango tickets...and Flex tickets and PE tickets and J tickets (or P/Z when I can, if you want to be picky). They are all part of my mix. They all have different fees too and that the risk I take when I choose to buy them.

Correct. Except Horse...barn door....

We know AC wasn't the idea generator behind these fees, they just got high with all the money-growing-on-trees thing.

So, while no one was paying attention, AC increased change fees for no other reason than they can.
