Morotists who are trying to beat gas prices by choosing alternate transportation...

Airlines have been affected by the rise in gas prices the same as motorists.

Carey Duncan Co-Owner of Travel Quest in Portage explains that airlines are adding a fuel sur-charge to the taxes charged on a ticket. She adds obviously travelers are not impressed.

Duncan says people will still buy the packages because everyone remembers what Portage feels like in January.

She says early bird seats are one way to save money on your ticket, but the fuel sur-chrage will still apply.
