asiafun Posted December 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 I think I would feel better if the price was in the ticket. I would not feel like the money was going into some black hole. Out of sight out of mind..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 Until I saw the machines for the dept chit, I figured the only reason the cost was not part of the ticket was to make jobs for more people. could still be true, just a few more tech to service the machines in case the girls behind the window don't get the $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dali Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 It would be a lot more convenient for everyone if they just included it in the ticket price like many other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This true and if so is it really 500 Baht or has the price gone up. Why is it places like Thailand and the Philippines charge these departure fees. I have never done so in Japan, USA or Europe... hmmm, perhaps I just answered my own question there. I don't know of a single country that does not charge these fees. Think aabout it, its too good a grab to pass up. "You wanna go home? Pay up or else." Whaddyagonnado? Its a tax. Some countries hide taxes in the purchase price, others don't.
