Here are the charges you will see on your ticket, and their explanations:

Base Fare - our ticket price plus U.S. excise and departure/arrival taxes when they apply.
Taxes and carrier-imposed Fees - airport charges, government taxes and fees, and carrier-imposed surcharges.
Total Fare - base fare plus airport charges, government taxes and fees, and carrier imposed surcharges - the total price you pay.

HOTELS

Charges for Prepaid Reservations

In connection with facilitating your hotel transaction, the charge to your credit/debit card will include a charge for taxes and service fees. This charge includes an estimated amount to recover the amount we pay to the hotel in connection with your reservation for taxes owed by the hotel including, without limitation, sales and use tax, occupancy tax, room tax, excise tax, value added tax and/or other similar taxes.

The amount paid to the hotel in connection with your reservation for taxes may vary from the amount we estimate and include in the charge to you. This charge also includes an amount to cover service costs we incur in connection with handling your reservation. The charge for taxes and service fees varies based on a number of factors including, without limitation, the amount we pay the hotel, and the location of the hotel where you will be staying and may include profit that we retain.

We are not the vendor collecting and remitting taxes to the applicable taxing authorities. Our hotel suppliers, as vendors, include all applicable taxes in the amount billed to us and we pay over such amounts directly to the vendors. We are not a co-vendor associated with the vendor with whom we book or reserve our customer's travel arrangements. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate and the type of applicable taxes vary greatly by location.

Charges for Payment at Time of Checkout

We will not charge you for the hotel portion when you complete this transaction on delta.com. You will be charged directly by the hotel at the time of checkout for the estimated hotel total. In addition, you will be charged applicable taxes, including without limitation, sales and use tax, occupancy tax, room tax, excise tax, value added tax and/or other similar taxes, by the hotel you select.
