Cineplex 正在对 2023 年的一项裁决提出上诉,该裁决发现其在线票价在结账前隐瞒了高达 1.50 美元的费用,从而误导了消费者,这种做法被称为滴灌定价。
Cineplex is appealing a 2023 ruling that found its online ticket pricing misled consumers by hiding fees of up to $1.50 until checkout, a practice known as drip pricing.

The case, part of broader enforcement under updated Competition Act rules, has implications for industries like airlines and ride-sharing, where similar tactics are scrutinized.
