The rules stipulate that merchants must disclose to consumers prior to completion of booking so that consumers are fully aware what they are purchasing. Credit card networks have rules around refund policies that they must be disclosed to consumers before purchase is complete. The same sort of transparency needs to be done here. I would not have spent $5K on that ticket, had I known that I would also have to pay additionally for seat selection.
