Ah, yes. Consistency, except that different methods of payment incur different charges as will different classes of travel. At least FR's consistency is transparent.

OT: FR's payment surcharge is now £6 per flight.
Disclosure
Travel Agents must disclose that the Payment Fee is non-refundable and that it is charged by British Airways.
When I have compared expedia.co.uk and ba.com for the same flights, total price has been similar, i.e. expedia.co.uk include a fee in the price not shown separately. I wonder how they will accommodate the change.
