By December this year, the airlines will have to include the price of paying by debit card in the headline price of air tickets.

        My son has to fly most weeks around Europe for his business, his gripe is that he has to pay for coffee on the plane and the stewardess' never seem to have any change, probably saving up to pay for the fuel on the return trip

          they should do a Loyalty card scheme or something f(like the Oyster card) for regular Domestic/schedule Fliers - ie: the adds £25 onto a card and with each transaction that the Steward/stewardess makes for purchases it deducts it of the card (card valid for month) - (No need to pay, carry change for parties) 'its a Win-Win for the Company & consumer' Copyright 5corpio 2012

            It is a good idea if all the airlines would subscribe to it.
