$14 (£9) to enter the USA!

If the application is successful then the answer is given within in seconds and you’re given a reference number to use on you’re travels.

We’ve applied for several in our family both free and now charged for, only feature that was different was the extra page for payment (which is by credit card only)

There are print options for the reference number and the receipt for the payment transaction.

i coundn’t access form on 7th but did on 8th early am, left the [ayment section so whether i’ll get it is up to them

Damn! Just missed the deadline, applied online afternoon of 8th and the payment system had already been turned on!

Nice one Jon Mate

:D:D

It does seem the airport charges and fees are getting out of hand worldwide.

I believe the Germans just passed some egregious new tax for departing passengers, and the of course the UK fees for London (apparently to pay for T5?) are completely beyond the pale. What is it, 100 or 150 dollars to leave the UK now?

The difference being that in the West Indies or countries like Cambodia, you have to pay this departure tax cash on the spot. Which makes it always more painful.

And the only way out is to pull out a diplomatic passport.

In Antigua, it costs you $25 to get out, there was rumors it was getting ended, but not sure if it has. It is a great queue forming event, first you queue to check in, then you queue to pay the tax and then queue for security. I guess its a shock to the virgin passengers who have paid extra and checked in at hotel, to find they still have to queue twice!!!!!

The departure tax is still applied in Antigua (or at least was in July this year) as is the case in most Carribean islands. Where it seems to have disappeared (for instance in St Marteen), it has simply been added to your airport taxes.

Destination for virgins then? :diablo:

It costs that much for a cup of coffee and a bun at some EU airports! 😮

Yep just another rip off!
Not to speak about the price of a bottle of water AFTER the security check!

Can’t argue with you there!

That’s your opinion

It is indeed.

That’s your opinion

I just hope that the EU will impose the same racket tax the the US traveller entering the EU: what a shame!

Dream on! Personally I wouldn’t give them $3.
