Similarly, even if you issue the tickets seperately, the taxes cannot be cross-referenced. So if you have another set of ticket, the taxes are independently of whatever the ticket costs. Just FYI - everytime you fly from LHR to a non-EU city, on a Business/First Class seat, you will be looking at a GBP40 departure tax.
Do you think then it is worthwhile that I use the Oneworld Visy Country Pass instead of getting a seperate BA Ticket (80 Pounds is quite a bit!) so that the landing charges?
No my agent does stuff up because everytime I finish with the trip he always refund me 100-200AUD and he said it is because of tax... But anyway Do n't really care as I get $$ back
