Airport tax included<\/p>\n
I would like to question the practices of Sempati Air with
\nregards to their round-trip airfares to Singapore. I bought a
\nticket from a travel agent who charged me airport tax. According
\nto them it was normal practice with Sempati Air.<\/p>\n
On returning from Singapore, I was asked to pay the airport
\ntax. I explained to them, at the check-in counter in Singapore,
\nthat the tax was already paid for in Jakarta. They said that
\nthere was no such thing with Sempati Air and I had to pay the
\nairport tax. After returning to Jakarta, I checked with the
\ntravel agent regarding the tax and they asked for the invoice,
\nthe copy of the ticket and the boarding pass for clarification.
\nUnfortunately I left the boarding pass in the airplane.<\/p>\n
I gave them the invoice copy and the ticket. They promised to
\nfollow up. According to them, Sempati Air cannot refund the
\namount since there is no boarding pass. Only Sempati Air seems to
\nfollow a rule of issuing tickets that include the Singapore
\nairport tax. Why? Why create such an unnecessarily complicated
\nsystem? The monetary amount is very minor but the fraudulent
\npractice isn't.<\/p>\n
