They blame this on fuel costs.
Don't many airlines already implement fuel surcharges?
Personally, i don't care how many additional charges there are, or where they come from. Tell the bottom line number on how much it will cost me. And that goes the same for all bills - I appreciate you breaking out how much the taxes are, but I need to pay the bottom line price, stop trying to obfuscate that number.
Airlines, Gas companies, Cell phone bills - I don't care what your airport fee/fixes transport fee/ system access fee happens to be. I don't care how much the fertilizer that grew the feed for the cow that my steak came from. I know you have costs. My cost is the amount you want from my pocket, now stop trying to blame fuel costs/taxes and tell me whet the amount it withou me needing to get out a calculator.
