Easyjet moves to all-inclusive pricing policy
EasyJet has unveiled a new-look website which displays all-inclusive pricing right from the start of the booking process.
The move comes just days before next Tuesday’s deadline set by the Office of Fair Trading for all airlines and travel companies to adopt an all-inclusive policy.
“For many years easyJet has been at the forefront of the call for an industry-wide move to all inclusive pricing for all European airlines – especially given the prevalence of price-comparison sites which do not use a standard methodology for retrieving air fares,” said an easyJet statement.
“That’s why easyJet supports the action of the UK Office of Fair Trading and moves by the European Parliament to mandate all-inclusive pricing.”
It said while other airlines have “added a wide and exotic range of erroneous charges to make their lead-in fares look more attractive”, it has only ever separated out Air Passenger Duty and local airport charges at the beginning of its online booking process to “highlight the wildly-varying costs involved in operating from each of its airports”.
