Just had a big family reunion in Florida with relatives flying in from overseas. Reading about this new $250 visa fee (starting Oct 2025), I couldn’t help but think how much extra that would’ve added to the trip. Hotels were already pricey enough. When I plan group trips, I usually pad the budget for surprises, but this fee would’ve been a real hit. Definitely something to keep in mind for anyone traveling in 2025. I usually tell my travel buddies to set aside about 15% more than they think they'll need for these kinds of regulatory changes, and this new fee just proves why that's so important.
