When the £/€10 fares offers aren't on FR's taxes,fees & charges varies wildly on the same route from one hour to the next.
For example on my usual route of EDI/DUB the taxes were 14.83 one day and when I checked the same flight 4 hours later the taxes were £19.99. Thefore in theory, 3 people on a return journey the taxes could be circa £120.
It would appear that they are skimming of the charges instead of the fare line, thus in turn making the lead in fare remain low and the not so informed punter thinks that it's all greedy Gordon as it comes under the taxes fees and charges line on the booking form.
