What are the implications of open segments on airport taxes?
I remember someone telling me to avoid having a stopover in LHR unless you really need it. It looks like it raises the tax to the tune of $50 or so. So by making all segments open are you not paying more taxes? I assume when you make a segment open, then you are paying the stopover taxes for all the segments involved. Any insight into this...

It is up to you. When you give the airline your itinerary you designate which destinations will be connections and which stopovers. Taxes, therefore, will be based on your choice, for each sector, even if they are open.
