Int'l travel on CAL (tax question)

Amanda · 06-19-2007, 05:16 PM

I have a question on departure taxes. This Friday is the 1st time I'll be travelling internationally on CAL (keeping fingers crossed!). Nick said something about having to pay a fee or tax when I get to the airport, and it might have to be cash. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks!

Amanda,

It will be payroll deducted if Nick's passes are payroll deducted. All the info is on coair. Go to Pass Travel, then city info, then Glasgow.

It depends where you are going, but I think in your case it is deducted. Have fun!

Thanks Jan (and Rebecca)! Nick called and said it was paid out of pocket at the airport...which I thought was strange that we would need to pay anything out of pocket.

yeah, even ours are deducted. are you talking about the taxes themselves or the actual companion fare?

only if your using a buddy pass are the taxes included in the buddy pass fare. i think...and if CAL's companion pass is similar to the buddy pass system then whatever your fare is should already be including those taxes.

We used to have to pay cash/check only with US Airways. And you couldn't do it at the ticket counter--it had to be in special services. What a pain! But that was many moons ago, perhaps they've updated since then!
