USA Fuel Surcharge

I'm considering doing some flying in Florida this summer.
With gas prices in the USA now at $4.00 per gallon, and the flying schools in America famous adding-on charges they don't broadcast on their websites, can anyone tell me how how much the fuel surcharges are at OFT/OBA etc as this will be a serious factor in my decision to go.
Much appreciated

Danger

Yeah - there are "no fuel surcharges" at OBA. But the price has went up from around £2600 to £4200 in just a few years to fly the exact same aircraft.
