Goodbye “Teaser” Airfare Ads, Hello Truth in Advertising

No, airfares did not just jump.  New FTC rules just went into effect, requiring tax and other fees to be included.  No more “bait and switch” ads of $9 fares to Europe.  Other rules now in effect:  1) no payment necessary for 24 hour hold on reservations, 2) 24 hour no fee cancellations, and 3) no more fare rises after purchase.
