In Reply to: One Way Ticket For Sale DPS to SYD $A275 posted by GaryD on Thursday, 14. December 2006 at 18:42 Bali Time:
on a ticket with jetstar and it cost us $800. Original ticket was $14 plus taxes total $382.
There are all these other charges to add besides the $75 name change and by the way that is for one way only. If ticket is return it is $150, then there is the fare difference plus you have to pay the taxes again and also if the old ticket had the comfort pack and the new person wants that as well then you have to pay for it again.
Old costs: Jetsaver $7.00
Jetsaver $7.00
credit card $16.00
video on demand $20.00
meal service $34.00
comfort pack $14.00
taxes fees $302.51
Total $400.51
New Ticket (name change)
Jetsaver $376.00
jetsaver $306.00
credit card $ 16.00
video on demand $ 20.00
meal pack $ 34.00
comfort pack $ 14.00
name change $150.00
taxes fees $284.90
total $1200.90
New minus old $1200.90
$ 400.51
New total price $ 800.39
So as you see it is not just the $75 as stated. We did this on Tuesday and it is a big rip off as far as I am concerned. Why you should have to pay for the extras again is a bit rude as they have not been used. but it worked out cheaper for my son to do the name change than purchase a new ticket $1124.00
