Thumbs down Travel-Anyone Notice

Has anyone noticed how far the Travel Industry has gone in misleading advertising and in some cases appear to be outright deceptive. Look up a cruise from the ads and it will say somethink like as low as $350. When you dig deeper it is really $450+ when the add ons are investigated and if you want a 1 or 2 upgrade they go "sky high". And in addition there are 20+ cruises advertized and the so called $350 is one in the line and in some black hole time. The rest can be significantly higher. We are not new to travel and in fact have and do travel a great bit and have noticed how deceptive the adds have become. We have seen cases where once you add up the "other things" the price almost doubles. By being experienced and watching the prices and the small print and the Terms and Conditions you can avoid some of this deceptiveness.
