Question last minute bookings

why do the airlines charge you £15 each to pick your tickets up from their desk at the airport, when you book a flight a few days before you go,i think this is a disgrace have any other members had this problem and why do they do it

Standard Practice, late ticket on Departure charge as there is no time for the tickets to be dispatched in the post.
I think it kicks in either 1 or 2 weeks before the intended travel date, depending on the copmany involved.
I presume the reason is that instead of the cost of a first class stamp, they have to pay for someone to check and give you the tickets at the airport.

I agree this is a disgrace, as the agencies usually have a desk at the airports there is no need for this charge.

My friend often books flight from the internet for anywhere in the world, she never has a ticket just has to go to the desk give them the reference number they give a boarding pass and that is it.
When she stayed with us in May I asked her to check her ticket, this is when she told me that she don't do tickets! I did question whether Dalaman had this system, and surprise surprise they do, and the bonus is she does not have to pay to collect tickets, what a great system.
