No More Sneaky Checkout Fees!

Ever get hit with those annoying “service” or “resort” fees right before you pay for concert tickets or a hotel? That’s now illegal! The FTC just banned hidden fees at checkout for live event tickets and short-term stays (think Airbnb, hotels). Companies have to show you the full price upfront—no more sticker shock. If you spot a hidden fee, you can report it and the business could get fined. Finally, some real price transparency! #HiddenFees #ConsumerProtection #FTC #TravelTips #Ticketmaster #Spirituality
