All Travel Agencies are using an INTEGRATED SOFTWARE that will automatically add an amount on your flight ticket price. This software is not authorised and approved by IATA.
Two ways to find out the exact amount of your flight ticket price.
Before purchasing your flight ticket.
1) Type the AIRLINE name on the web site SEARCH area to open the Airline site.
2) Then search the ticket price, for example Mumbai – Delhi on 12 th October.
3) The government Service tax for domestic airline is .515%, of the basic fare only and for international airline, it is 1.03 % of the basic fare only. This service tax amount will not show on the airline site.
4) When you compare ticket price from an agency this may be calculated by yourself to see the total amount of your ticket price. For example if you see a ticket price on the Airline web - Basic fare 600 taxes WO 229 YQ 2900 = Total price without service tax is 3729 . The service tax of 600 rupees x .515% is 3 rupees. So the total ticket price from the agency will be 3732 rupees.
5) Web site examples are www.flyemirates.com, www.flykingfisher.com, www.jetairways.com, www.spicejet.com, www.goindigo.com eta...
6) Note down the price, taxes, class of booking, of your travel sector and COMPARE the price with an agency quote.
Or If you have already purchased your flight ticket from an agency, then
1) You can ask for a print from the airport external counter mentioning your airline PNR. Calculate the difference.
2) Also you can search the airline web site. Type your PNR and print your ticket as an evidence to get back your additional payment.
