Unfortunately the bizarre high oil prices and Government taxes are to blame, not the airlines. Out of interest, are there airlines that still offer tickets that are 100% free?
They have upgraded the amenity kits to even worst kits apparently!

I don't know if there are still airlines that offer 100% free tickets, but the other day I reserved a "free ticket" YUL-CDG-MXP-CDG-YUL and the tax bill was 363$$$ (CAD wich is now the same as USA). 363 $ looks like a huge amount of taxes to me! I tried booking a paying fare the same trip (same days, same flights) and there were "only" 260 $ of taxes... Go figure...

Ciao!
