Kubera kwa Skyway: Malipiro pamwamba pa chindapusa ndi chindapusa pambali

Monga ngati kulipiritsa $15 kuti ayang'ane thumba sikunali kokwanira, ndege ziwiri zikupempha $5 yowonjezereka kuyambira chilimwe ngati mutalipira pa cheke - chindapusa pamwamba pa chindapusa.

Zachidziwikire, mutha kulipira ndalama zonyamula katundu wanu kunyumba. Oyendetsa ndege amachitcha "kuchotsera pa intaneti."

Ngati ndege zitha kuthawa, chotsatira ndi chiyani? M'malo mokweza mitengo pakati pa kugwa kwachuma, akungowonjezera chindapusa kuti apeze ndalama - chindapusa cha matumba, chindapusa kuti adutse pamzere mwachangu, ngakhale chindapusa cha mipando ina.

United Airlines yokha ikuyembekeza kupeza ndalama zoposa $ 1 biliyoni chaka chino kuchokera ku katundu kupita ku mphotho zothamanga pafupipafupi. Ndizoposa 5 peresenti ya ndalama zake.

Zolipiritsa zatsopano ndizomwe ndege zina, kwinakwake, zayesera. Ndalama zomwe zimaperekedwa nthawi zambiri zimachokera ku ndege imodzi kapena ziwiri, ndipo omwe akupikisana nawo amayang'ana kuti awone ngati okwera akuvomereza kapena kuwukira. Mwachitsanzo:

_ US Airways ndi United akulipira okwera $5 kuti alipire katundu wawo pabwalo la ndege m'malo mwa intaneti. United idakhazikitsa chindapusa pa June 10, pomwe US ​​Airways iyamba kugwira ntchito pa Julayi 9.

_ Ngati mukufuna kusankha mpando wotuluka pa AirTran ndikusangalala ndi chipinda chowonjezera, yembekezerani kutsokomola $20.

_ Allegiant Air, ndege yaing'ono yotsika mtengo padziko lonse lapansi, imawononga $13.50 "ndalama" pogula pa intaneti, ngakhale onyamula ena ambiri amalimbikitsa kugula kuchokera patsamba lawo.

_ Wotsitsa waku Europe Ryanair amalipira zomwe aliyense akuyenera kuchita ngati akufuna kuwuluka: fufuzani. Ndi ma euro 5, kapena pafupifupi $6.75, kuti muyang'ane pa intaneti, kuwirikiza kawiri kwa okwera omwe amalipira pa eyapoti. Ryanair ikukonzekera kuthetsa madesiki olowera ku eyapoti.

_ Ndege yaku Spain Vueling imalipira chindapusa kuti asankhe mpando. Mpando uliwonse konse. Mpando "woyamba" kumbuyo kwa phiko umayenda ma euro 3. Kwa ma euro 30, apaulendo amatha kusankha mpando wapanjira kapena pawindo ndikutsimikizira kuti mpando wapakati ukhala wopanda kanthu.

“Ayenera kumasuka nawo,” anatero Jim Engineer wokhumudwa, yemwe ndi mkulu woyang’anira nkhani za anthu amene akudikira ndege yotuluka mu LaGuardia ya New York. "Kulipiritsa madzi ndi mipando kumangotanthauza makasitomala osasangalala."

Posachedwapa chaka chatha, owuluka ambiri amangopeza ndalama ngati atayang'ana matumba atatu kapena kutumiza mwana wachichepere m'dziko lonselo. Anthu ambiri, nthawi zambiri, ankayenda popanda malipiro.

Koma izi zinayamba kusintha masika apitawa. Kukwera kwamitengo yamafuta a jeti komanso kukana kwa okwera mitengo yokwera kunayambitsa ndege kuyang'ana mozungulira kanyumbako kuti apeze zinthu zomwe atha kulipiritsa.

Apaulendo akuwona kuti ndizosavuta kuti ndege ziwonjezeko zolipirira kusiyana ndi kuzichotsa.

"Apitilizabe kuwakakamiza mpaka atayamba kukana msika," atero a Ed Perkins, mkonzi pawebusayiti ya Smarter Travel.

Izi ndi zomwe zidachitika ku US Airways. Adayesa kwa miyezi isanu ndi iwiri kulipiritsa koloko ndi madzi koma adasiya mu Marichi popanda ndege zina zomwe zidatenga lingalirolo. Ndipo Delta idachepetsanso mapulani olipira $ 50 kuti ayang'ane thumba lachiwiri pamaulendo onse apandege apadziko lonse lapansi. M'malo mwake, ndalamazo zimagwira ntchito pamaulendo apandege opita ku Europe.

United yakhala mtsogoleri pakupeza njira zolipiritsa okwera padera pazinthu. Zina ndi za zokometsera zomwe apaulendo ankazipeza kwaulere, monga chakudya. Zina ndi ntchito zatsopano zonse, monga ntchito yonyamula katundu ya United khomo ndi khomo kudzera pa FedEx.

Oyendetsa ndege amati chindapusa ndi gawo lamitengo ya "la carte" yomwe imawalola kukhala ndi mzere pamitengo. M'malo molipira mtengo wokwera kwa aliyense, iwo amati, okwera amatha kusankha ndi kusankha zina zomwe akufuna kulipira.

Malingaliro a chindapusa satuluka m'malingaliro. Mwezi watha ku Miami ambiri onyamula akuluakulu aku US ndi ndege zambiri zakunja adachita nawo msonkhano wokhudzana ndi mitengo ndi chindapusa cha a-la-carte. (Mwambi, pafupi ndi chojambula chandege: "Kupeza sitolo yowulukira.")

Zolipiritsa zina zimakulitsa malingaliro: Mkulu wa kampani yonyamula kuchotsera ku Europe Ryanair wayandama lingaliro la kulipiritsa ntchito m'chimbudzi ndi matumba odwala. Koma ngakhale iye sanapite patsogolo ndi zomwe zimawoneka ngati zokopa anthu, ndipo palibe wonyamula wina yemwe wanenapo izi.

Komabe, palibe lamulo loletsa chindapusa chotere ku US, malinga ndi dipatimenti ya Transportation ndi Federal Aviation Administration.

Delta Air Lines Inc. ndi AirTran Holdings Inc. akuti alibe malingaliro olipira kuti akanyamule matumba, lingaliro lomwe lingakwiyitse apaulendo akungozolowera kulipira katundu wofufuzidwa.

Zitha kuyikanso ogwira ntchito pandege m'malo ovuta kusankha ngati thumba lomwe lili pamkono wanu ndi chikwama chachikulu, mwina chaulere, kapena sutikesi yabumbu. Kale, chindapusa cha matumba ochongedwa chapangitsa kuti kupeza malo mu bini yam'mwamba kukhala kovuta.

Ndipo ngakhale matumba onyamula amakhala aulere, United ikupereka kale cheke cha "Premier Line" $25. Imalola zowulutsa kuti zidutse polowera ndi chitetezo mwachangu ndikukwera kale.

Izi zimatsimikizira malo ena amtengo wapataliwo - kotero mwanjira ina, zili ngati chindapusa, atero a Jay Sorensen, Purezidenti wa IdeaWorks Co., mlangizi wandege yemwe adalemba bukhu lothandizira ndege kufunafuna "ndalama zowonjezera," makampani. nthawi yolipira ndi zina zowonjezera monga makhadi a ngongole andege.

Matthew J. Bennett, Mtsogoleri wamkulu wa FirstClassFlyer.com, adanena kuti akuganiza kuti oyenda kutsogolo kwa ndegeyo sadzakhala otetezeka ku ndege za nickle-and-dime zomwe zimayang'ana anthu okwera ndege.

Kwa iwo omwe ali mu mphunzitsi, "Zomwe azilipira mtsogolomu ndi chilichonse chomwe sichinatsitsidwe."

"Apeza kale ndalama zokwanira kuchokera kwa iwo," adatero Bennett. Zonse zomwe amangonena kwa oyenda m'kalasi ndi 'Sitinapeze zokwanira kuchokera kwa inu.'
