[QUOTE]Originally posted by Albino_Eskimo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by SayWhatYouSee: [qb] Albino: ''It doesn't really add up equally. It still costs Americans more.'' No it doesn't! Comparitively, Americans can get some great deals. The flights cost more, simply based on air miles travelled...they are not proportionally more. Europeans, on similar packages to the above (WITH SHORTER FLIGHTS), would pay the same or more. Taking the flight differences into account, i.e. Americans get a long haul flight, Brits a short one - the America deal is better.Your air fare calculations are way out too, as you haven't even included internal flights, in your DIY package. Comparing like with like would enhance your point. Making up your own figures sure doesn't! [/qb][/QUOTE]Where are you from? If you aren't American you don't know what we pay. Most American aren't offered these packaged deals. There is a travel company called "Carlson" based out of Minnetonka and Plymouth in my state. They sell travel agency travel packages. I know programmers who work there and they try to get the employee pricing that the European employees get, but in vain. There is another travel company that has boomed called "Hobbit Travel" and this company doesn't offer "nile cruises" either. Now I don't know if you've heard of "Affliate Marketing", but its huge. Airlines see that not alot of Americans travel to Egypt, but Europeans do, the Airlines are more willing to bundle airfare and "nile cruises" for Europeans because its cost effective due to more Europeans travel to Egypt than Americans. The American "tourists" aren't likely to buy these "nile cruises" packages because they are more likely to visit family than get on a damn boat. Sorry but you offer deep discounts to a primary source of business, not to the stray customer. Its business sense, and its not supposed to be fair. This is the point I am trying to make.
