Its NOT the GOB, its the stikin airlines !

I'm not sure who to blame....I can say that my last ticket had just as many add-on taxes and fees as it did for the ticket itself. Nearly 50/50....It appears a good part of those taxes and special fees were charged by both Goldson and the GOB....However, it also includes the exit fees....

Ernie, I bet its easier to get into Fort Knox than to figure out how airlines compute fares.

Tax's and fee's on current ticket: U.S. 57.60, Bze. 49.75 = 109.35 or 19.6 % of base fare.

Everything's relative. 90 years ago to get from New York to Belize City on a United Fruit Company steamer would have cost US$150 -- about US$1,900 in today's dollars. That's one way. Round trip would have been about US$3,800.

WTF! Seattle to Belize......$1,246 + taxes RT!!!

We book our flights out of Cancun to the US and then back into Belize International. Saves us about $250 USD per person that way. It also gives us time to take a breath before heading back into civilization!

Ouch!

Didn't really understand your routing or airlines getting from Cancun to US and into BZE. Could you elaborate some for us novices PLS.

Back down to $695 + tax today.
