For example, a couple booking a return flight from London to Spain would be charged £20.00 for using a debit or credit card.
Ryanair would have to pay about 30p of that £20.00 if the booking was made using a debit card, or between 1.5% and 2.5% of the ticket cost (exculding card charges) if a credit card was used.
A ticket costing £100.00 means that Ryanair would have to pay a charge of £1.50 to £2.50 if a credit card was used, about 30p if a debit card was used. |
That's how Ryanair make their profit.. nothing wrong with that. If you don't like it then you are free to choose a different airline.,
It's extraordinary how many people complain about Ryanair but continue to choose them because overall they are cheaper than most.. If they didn't have a credit card charge then they would just jack up the price of the flight by €5 per person per leg... It's not possibe to fly people anywhere for €1 .
