Thanks for putting me right on the small print. If it is publicised that the £6 charge can be avoided by booking before 1 November then some of the inevitable fall in passenger numbers might be reduced or postponed. However, the way the charge is being introduced is a recipe for chaos. From 15 November there will be three categories of passengers - those that do not have to pay and have the right paperwork, those that do not have to pay, but don't have the right paperwork, and those that do have to pay the 'facility fee' for the worst facilities in the region.
