Fares do not include a federal excise tax of $3.20, which will be imposed on each domestic flight segment of the itinerary -- a flight segment is defined as a takeoff and a landing. Fares do not include the September 11th Security Fee of up to $10 per itinerary. Fares do not include up to $18 in airport passenger facility charges where applicable. Fares to Canada do not include a federal immigration fee of $7 per roundtrip, Canadian airport fees of $13 per roundtrip, and the Canada Air Traveler Security charge of $10 per roundtrip. Fares do not include international taxes/fees of up to $106
It shouldn't br one bit. They're starting to be up-front about the taxes and such.
