Airline debit card fees

If you booked a low cost flight in Europe, I'm sure you are familiar with the low cost airlines 'optional extras' that tend to include things like buying a seat, and paying by a credit / debit card other than that operated by the airline. Well seems just as legislation is due in the UK to crack down on these things, with particulare reference to Ryan Air - at the bottom of the pile, I was a little suprised to see the following piece of marketing shite from slightly better Easy Jet

So while I might not be paying any more - there is a massive 9 quid in admin fees, and further 4.95 if I we were to pay by credit card. So while Ryan Air is in the shit for charging 6 a head, it looks as though companies are going to be getting away with admin fees like this for some time to come.
