Irish cannot avoid Ryanair €10 credit card charge

IRISH customers of Ryanair are being forced to pay an extra €10 when booking a return flight whereas the charge can be avoided across the rest of Europe.

The airline is hammering its Irish passengers for a €5 credit card levy per flight because the Visa Electron card, which does not incur the charge, is not available here.

Ryanair has continuously blamed the Government’s €10 air travel tax for its decision to pull routes and cut jobs in Ireland.
