My flight with euromanx was £19 single IOM-MAN.
Fare = £0
Taxes and charges = £19
When do the government get the "taxes and charges" ?
Do they get it at the time at ticketing or do they get it when the flight happens?
If the government get the money at the time of ticketing then I claim my £19.........!
Its when the flight happens. The airline only pays the taxes for those who actually fly (they don't pay the taxes for no shows), and so they are not paid until after the flights occurs.
