Re: Disney Cruise Line Announces Fuel Surcharge
Well, we are spending something like 18% of the US oil consumption on the military, largely in the middle east. We should be fueling the war with Iraqi oil at Iraqi prices.
The fares to MCO from here have jumped 13% due to increased costs, and we are already paying a fuel surcharge on our Alaska cruise next week.
The incresase have to get passed on, so that results in higher prices arcoss the board for EVERYTHING. And there is no end in sight.
I drive about 25-30k miles a year in my business and my automobile expense is my highest business by far, including $12k annual health insurance costs!
