Remember the energy surcharge at hotels?

During (and much after) the "energy crisis" of 2000/2001, many hotels tried to charge an energy surcharge. Same deal. I expect that they will try for a labor surcharge after their next labor contract negotiations and a regulatory recovery recovery fee (for them to get back what they pay to their broadband provider)...

And some airlines have gate charges, departure fees, fuel surcharges, etc. that go beyond the advertised cost of an airline ticket - all of which could be factored into the advertised price if they wanted to.
