Ukunyuka kwemirhumo yeenqwelomoya kuyababhidisa kwaye kubacaphukise abakhweli babo

Ukunyuka komrhumo wenqwelo moya kufikelele kumanyathelo amatsha kwiveki ephelileyo ngentlawulo yemiqamelo kunye neengubo kunye neentlawulo zerekhodi zamatikiti amabhaso ahamba rhoqo.
I-JetBlue yaqala ukubiza i-7 yeedola kwiseti entsha yomqamelo kunye nengubo enokuthi abakhweli bayigcine.

I-US Airways imisele imirhumo yokuqhuba amatikiti abhabhayo rhoqo aya kuxabisa ukubhukisha iiflaya kwi-Intanethi ngeedola ezingama-30 ngenqwelo moya yasekhaya kunye ne-$40 phantse kuzo zonke iindawo zokufikela kumazwe ngamazwe. Ukubhukisha ngefowuni kubiza iiflaya ngeedola ezingama-55 kuhambo lwasekhaya, i-$80 yeenqwelomoya zaseHawaii kunye needola ezingama-90 kwiinqwelomoya ezininzi zamazwe ngamazwe. Utshintsho eHawaii, i-trans-Atlantiki okanye itikiti le-trans-Pacific rhoqo-flier ixabisa $250.

Imirhumo yenqwelo moya ikhula ngenani, ikhula ngokukhawuleza, kwaye iyacaphukisa okanye ibhidekisa iindiza ezininzi. Iinkampani zeenqwelomoya zithi ezi ntlawulo ziyimfuneko kuba zibethwe kukunyuka okukhulu kwexabiso lamafutha ejethi.

"Ndicinga ukuba le ndlela ye-la carte yokucinezela abahambi ngokusisiseko kukusithiyelwa kunye nokutshintsha," utshilo uJeff Kahne, umcebisi waseSan Antonio. "Basibiza ngemali esisiseko kwaye baqale ukupakisha imirhumo."

Iinqwelo-moya “zizama ukulungisa iindleko,” utsho uDavid Castelveter, usekela mongameli woMbutho wezoThutho lomoya, iqela labarhwebi kwimizi-mveliso. Ipetroli yeJet iza kuxabisa iinqwelomoya zeedola ezingama-61.2 eebhiliyoni kulo nyaka, xa kuthelekiswa ne-20 yeebhiliyoni zeedola kunyaka ophelileyo, utshilo.

Ingeniso yomrhumo ophezulu iya kunceda ukuhlawula ezo ndleko. I-US Airways ithe kwiveki ephelileyo ilindele i-400 yezigidi zeedola ukuya kwi-500 yezigidi zeedola ngonyaka kwisicwangciso sayo sexabiso le-la carte, esibandakanya ukuhlawulisa ibhegi ejongwe kuqala, iziselo ezingezizo utywala kunye nokusetyenzwa kwamatikiti abhaso rhoqo.

Imirhumo ehlawuliswa abakhweli iyahluka ngenqwelomoya, kwaye iyantlukwano inokuba mkhulu, ngokutsho kwe-USA TODAY yovavanyo lweentlawulo eziqhelekileyo zeenqwelomoya ezili-15 kwiimveliso kunye neenkonzo ezifumanekayo zokuqeqesha abakhweli kwiinqwelomoya zasekhaya. Iintlawulo zeemveliso kunye neenkonzo ezili-19 zahlolwa.

Uvavanyo lufumanise ukuba:

• Zimbini kuphela iinqwelo-moya—— i-Southwest ne-Spirit—— azinayo ntlawulo yongezelelweyo yokubhukisha inqwelo-moya efowunini. Amaxabiso amatikiti atshiphu, nangona kunjalo, anokufumaneka rhoqo kwi-Intanethi.

• Ngaphezu kwesiqingatha seenqwelo-moya zihlawulisa imali eyongezelelekileyo kwisitulo osithandayo, esifana neso sinendawo yokulala eyongezelelweyo, kufutshane nomphambili wekhabhini okanye kwipaseji.

• Uninzi lweenqwelo moya azihlawulisi mali ukubhukisha itikiti lasimahla lokubhabha kwi-intanethi, kodwa phantse zonke zihlawulela ukubhukisha efowunini.

• Uninzi lweenqwelo moya azihlawulisi isingxobo sokuqala esijongwayo, kodwa nguMzantsi-ntshona kuphela ongahlawulisi okwesibini.

• Inani elandayo leenqwelo-moya zihlawulela iziselo ezingezizo utywala kunye namashwamshwam, kwaye okunye ukutya kuthengiswa nge-10 yeedola okanye ngaphezulu.

Umrhumo weenqwelomoya, uKahne uthi, ngamanye amaxesha ulingana nenqwelomoya, "ukwenza ukutsiba ukuya eHoboken kabini kwinto ebesiyixelelwe."

Inani elikhulayo lemirhumo ngamanye amaxesha kunzima ukuliqonda kwaye alichazwanga ngokucacileyo kubakhweli, utsho uKate Hanni, umlawuli olawulayo weCoalition for the Airline Passenger' Bill of Rights, umthetheleli wamalungelo abathengi. Uthi: “Kuyo yonke indawo ukubhideka nomsindo.

I-ATA's Castelveter ayivumi ukuba iiflaya zibhidekile. "Iinqwelomoya ziye zacaca kakhulu ekuchazeni esidlangalaleni amaxabiso kunye neentlawulo," utshilo. "Ukongezelela, ukuqaliswa kweentlawulo zenkonzo kuye kwaba ngumxholo weendaba ezininzi zeendaba, eziye zandisa ulwazi lwabathengi."

NgoMeyi, iSebe lezoThutho lazisa iinkampani zeenqwelomoya ukuba zibonise ngokucacileyo iindleko zemithwalo etshekiweyo kwiiwebhusayithi zazo kunye nezibhengezo ezishicilelweyo. I-arhente ithi iinqwelomoya ezinentlawulo yengxowa yokuqala etshekiweyo kufuneka ziyikhankanye kubathengi xa bebhukisha itikiti ngefowuni.

Ngokumalunga nokunyuka komrhumo wenqwelomoya, iDOT yatsho kwingxelo eya e-USA TODAY ukuba “ayinalo igunya lokumisela ukuba inqwelo moya inokubiza malini ngeenkonzo zayo.” Kodwa iyayiqonda into yokuba "iinkampani zeenqwelomoya kunye neearhente zamatikiti azihlanganisi imirhumo ethile kwiinqwelo-moya ezipapashiweyo, kwaye siya kuqhubeka nokubeka iliso kwishishini ukuqinisekisa ukuba le mirhumo ibhengezwa ngokucacileyo kwaye ichazwa kubakhweli."

I-DOT ithi ayinalo igunya kwiintlawulo ezikhethiweyo ezifana nezokutya kunye neziselo.

I-JetBlue ithi intlawulo yayo yokuzikhethela yomqamelo kunye nengubo yinto efanelekileyo kuba iiflaya zifumana isikhwama esithwala izinto kunye nekhuphoni ye-$ 5 evela kumthengisi welizwe. Imiqamelo kunye neengubo zezomgangatho ophezulu kwaye zicocekile ngakumbi kunezo bezibonelelwa ngaphandle kwentlawulo, utshilo u-Alison Eshelman.

UMartin Israelsen osekwe rhoqo e-Atlanta, umseki wewebhusayithi yokubhukisha uhambo iWebReserv.com, uthi akanangxaki “yokuhlawula iirandi ezimbalwa ezongezelelweyo” ngomqamelo, kodwa akufuneki ahlawuliswe ngengubo. iinqwelomoya zakusasa xa kubanda kwikhabhini yabakhweli.

Imirhumo ye-US Airways yokulungisa amatikiti abhabha rhoqo “ijolise ekuncedeni ukuhlawula ezinye zeendleko zethu ezinyukayo,” utshilo isithethi sikaValerie Wunder. "Ngomndilili, kubiza i-US Airways i-$ 700 ngohambo olujikelezayo ukuthwala umkhweli."

Noko ke, abaninzi ababhabhayo abanaluvelwano.

ULori Strumpf, umcebisi eWashington, DC, obhabha ukuya kuthi ga kasixhenxe ngeveki, uthi ixabiso letikiti kufuneka libandakanye iingxowa, ukutya kunye nasiphi na isihlalo kwinqwelomoya. “Ndingumcebisi onika iingcebiso,” utshilo. "Ukuba ngoku ndithe ireyithi yam yosuku ihlawulelwe iziseko zoncedo kwaye umxhasi wam kufuneka ahlawule imali eyongezelelweyo ngengcebiso yam, iya kuba yinto ehlekisayo."

UMarc Belsher, umcebisi wezempilo eNewberg, Ore., Uthi ubhabha rhoqo kwiiveki ezimbini kwaye akafumani ntlawulo yamkelekileyo. “Ndinike ixabiso letikiti, ndivumele ndenze isigqibo esifanelekileyo kwaye ungandicaphukisi ngokundifaka nge-nickel kunye ne-diming kuyo yonke intlawulo enegazi,” utshilo.

Ukusuka ekubhukisheni ukuya kwi-snacking ebhodini, iintlawulo ezinyukayo zenqwelomoya ziyayongeza

Ezi tshathi zibonisa iintlawulo iinqwelomoya zase-US ezidla ngokubiza abakhweli abakhweli kwiinqwelomoya zasekhaya. Iintlawulo zinokwahluka kunezibonisiwe, kuxhomekeke kwiimeko zomhambi ngamnye. Umzekelo, umrhumo wokutshintsha itikiti unokwahluka ngokuxhomekeke ekubeni itikiti litshintshiwe kwi-intanethi, ngenkqubo yokubhukisha ifowuni yenqwelo-moya okanye ngearhente yokuhamba. Iintlawulo zezihlalo ezikhethwayo zinokuba phezulu kwezinye iindlela okanye iintlobo zeenqwelomoya, okanye zinokwahluka kwiintlobo ezahlukeneyo zezihlalo. Iinqwelomoya ezininzi zinciphisa okanye zirhoxise iifizi ezithile kubakhweli abahamba rhoqo okanye abakhweli abahlawula imali epheleleyo yabaqeqeshi. Ulwazi olukwezi tshati luhlaziywe ukususela ngoLwesihlanu, Agasti 8. Nceda i-USA TODAY igcine ikwixesha elizayo. Uhlaziyo lwe-imeyile kunye neengcebiso malunga nesi sikhokelo somrhumo wenqwelomoya kwi-USA TODAY intatheli uGary Stoller e [imeyile ikhuselwe]
