Yes, I see your point there... but even two is tiny... Do you really appreciate how small NI is? or Wales? You can drive across them in under an hour. I appreciate there approach to countries, but isn't that a LITTLE off form considering US stuff was canada/usa?
In the UK its a cheeky way to make more profit. The UK is NI, Wales, Scotland and England... one 'nation' internationally. ROI... sure, its different. I could have handled England and Wales, Scotland, and Ireland realistically... its a more natural break rather than a clear cut attempt to make a buck out of their customers. NI is absolutely tiny... nowhere near the majestic terrain of even Wales, its flat, its about a quarter cities and towns, lots of samey fields and quite a chunk of water too. In terms of effort needed the time taken to turn UK, Wales, Scotland and NI out is quite telling compared to other FTX regions.
US, Canada, Aus, NZ... they all took quite a long time and the price was due to the effort needed.... the UK reason for the price is '0h its more effort in a smaller space'... but takes a quarter of the time?
I'm reaching the end of my tether with FS payware and figure in the air pricing. Perhaps its time we start thinking with our credit cards not with our hearts.... because its taking the mickey. Sadly some will still buy it anyway and undermine the majority.
