UDF.....WTF...!!

If not for the punctuality of Indigo Airways, this could well have been a true example of live blogging. This post comes directly from the waiting lounge of Bangalore International Airport at around 5:15 am IST. I missed posting it in time thanks to the announcement that called for the boarding of the flight.

About half an hour earlier while entering the spanking new building of BIA, I was asked by a Guard to pay the UDF before I entered its gates. Now for those wondering what UDF is, UDF stands for User Development Fee which is a tax that domestic travellers are supposed to pay before they are able to ‘use’ the brand new airport. Now I have no problems with paying taxes but what pricked me was the fact that the tax is an exorbitant Rs.260. I was already quite pissed off for having to pay Rs.330 just to reach the airport. The airport is so far from the main city that I wonder if it’s fair to even call it Bangalore Airport. Thanks to technology and improved services, I had booked a cab enough in advance to make sure I do not land in any kind of trouble at the eleventh hour.

Coming back to UDF, I didn’t quite like the fact that my wallet was made lighter by Rs.260 at 4 am in the morning without any prior warning. I mean what if I wasn’t carrying that amount with me? In fact I was actually not going to carry more than Rs.150 with me if my house owner had not returned the deposit amount the same day in cash. I didn’t need to carry more than that. Another strange thing was that no one asked a single question when asked to pay this amount. I mean I was immediately – why? It wasn’t written anywhere? Are you sure? Shouldn’t it have been a part of the taxes on my ticket? Etc etc.....

Anyways, here is a warning to anyone visiting Bangy anytime soon.....Have enough cash with you!
