This behavior is by no means restricted to Jet Blue or any of the airlines.

Rent a car at a rate of $40. per day. When you finally pay the bill, it will be approximately $55. per day. The taxes and local fees push up the rental price by 30%.

Rent a hotel room. Arrive and find out that they'll take $10. per day for parking.........thank you very much. Oh, and want to use the 800 number to dial out..........that's only free for 30 minutes per day. Talk for one hour and fork over another $4.00 or so.

The new "fee based pricing structure" is getting ridiculous............you're a captured customer upon arrival and they can charge anything they want.

I do believe it's time that the FTC gets involved and forces these outfits to disclose all fees and charges in advance.
