There is a great post from Chris Elliott today about what he calls the “dreaded fat-finger fare.” Basically, a fat-finger fare occurs when a decimal point gets moved and you end up spending $200,576 for a 13-night cruise. Keep reading to learn more about fat-finger fares… |
Fat-finger fares can turn up for hotel rates and a range of other travel expenses, and they can work both ways. So, if a hotel is all of a sudden charging $24.90 for a night’s stay instead of $249.00, and you know they made a mistake, would you book it anyway? If you said yes, you might have ditched one too many ethics classes in college, but who am I to judge?
