Charlotte to Essex: Southern Crossing

A fuel surcharge of 3% will be applied to each ticket sale.  Our fuel surcharge is based upon the average cost to LCT of diesel fuel.  The surcharge is reviewed and adjusted once a month on the 15th.  When the cost to LCT falls below $3.00 a gallon, the surcharge will be removed.
