It depends what you are selling and how

If I am buying a package there should not be any extras unless they are upgrades.

Your the one who started the Thomson/Crystal ski carriage thread and now your saying their is nothing wrong with extra charges!

I am aware prices can or up or down, but they only went up when I checked them, do another search and they would be down again.

Why does no one go for 14 days skiing? I have done 10 days but find it near impossible to fine package holidays for more then a week

Although I like putting my hols together and especially like road trips, skiing it tends to be package holidays and that is what I was looking for at Last minute

I have done sales in the past. If I told someone the price is £500 then asked them for £1000 I would have sold nothing and that is what last minute are doing.

A GPS based navigation system which has maps indicating the location of fixed speed cameras must have the 'fixed speed camera PoI (Points of Interest)' function deactivated.
Radar detectors are prohibited even if not switched on.




Detectors are illegal to use in many countries including Germany and Spain. Possessing them is illegal in many more countries including France, Finland, Belgium

There are no powers to effectively collect speeding fines as speeding, not normally being an arrestable offence, can't be persued through the UK courts.

F! We paid a speeding fine of €80 as we were advised to but in my difference I was not driving

I so admire these saints who tell use not to speed, it is all to easy especially in a hire car to creep over the limit, well for me it is.

If the hire company do not have branches in Austria then you will probably get away with it.

if they do the hire company will probably charge your credit card for the fine

You could try telling your credit card company you lost your card and so all new charges will noot be honoured.

You won't get extradited but if you do get a fine and don't pay it then nothing will happen but you probably need to keep out of Austria for a few years and probably not use the hire company for a while

You will not get any endorsements

I know but if you type in a search for two people and the site comes up with a price it should be possible to book at that price

It is like going to Tescos buying a bag of sugar for example that has a price on it of £0.90 and being charge £1.50 because the price is based on buying 5 bags

To be fair to Icelolly it does not ask you for the number of people travelling but their site does not indicate what the price is based on
