Fuel Charge :-(

You knew it was coming you just didn't want to see it. In today's Orlando Sentinel Disney announced they will start a fuel surcharge.

Some highlights from the article:

Disney will charge the first two passengers in a stateroom $8 a person per day up to a maximum of $112 per person per vacation. It will charge any remaining passengers in a cabin $3 a person per day up to a maximum of $42 per person. It will begin levying the fuel surcharge on any new bookings made on or after May 28.

Like Carnival, Disney says it will rescind its fuel surcharge once oil spends 30 days trading below $70 per barrel. It has recently been trading near $120 per barrel.

FULL STORY

Do you think we will ever see oil below $70 a barrel? Doh
