For example, many travel firms do not mention the compulsory booking fees which can add €10 to €30 to the price of a ticket. The Consumentbond points out ‘you do not pay a scanning fee in the supermarket’.
Travel firms have been required by law to publish complete ticket prices, including add-ons, for several years.
