There were even more surprises in store.. you were going to be charged for using your credit or debit card to buy the ticket, even though there is no other way of paying. The EU has just made it illegal to do this kind of switch and bait advertising, but it is only required to show the price without "optional" fees. As sitting together, checking in a bag, etc is optional, they will continue with this rip off. This type of switch and bait trick was started by Ryanair and is infecting the whole industry, but by the time you have finished with all this nonsense the mainline carriers like BA are often cheaper. Sadly, BA has decided to abandon everywhere in the UK outside of London, so we are stuck with the lo-cost nightmares.
