Plus landing fees, war charges, etc. - it could certainly add several hundred dollars to the bottom line. (Also noted that fuel charges are added by "sector" - not "segment." Don't know if that makes any difference in this case but I suppose it could.)
Having also done a DONE4 ex-IST last year I would also have to question the US$300 figure. Ours were more like $500-$600.
Wow, yeah my taxes were definitely around the 300 range ex ist.
I just send a request to MRU and they said they repriced, to avoid duplicating some taxes, and now it came to about 500-600 usd, which i'm ok with. $1100 def seemed way too high for me.
