Domestic: 5 EUR
European: 8 EUR
International: 18 EUR
Although credit card surcharges may not be new to BD flyers, I don't understand the rate of surcharge for flights originating in the UK published
here (p.5).
It looks like a flat rate will be charged for flights originating in Belgium, Finland, the Netherlands and the UK regardless of the class of travel but the note "**Only Economy classes" (for the UK) is not clear to me. Does it mean £4.50 OPC is only charged on Economy Class tickets? Or the other way round?

Does that mean bmi award flights starting in FRA would be charged €18 for using a credit card?? That would be bad.
