30 Euros Passenger fee? For using a credit card? Is this still legal?

Why wouldn't it be? They can surely charge what they want, and the fee
is per passenger, not per transaction.
How can a cc fee be per passenger? It is one transaction.

I always figure in the card cost
(maestro is a bit cheaper than credit, isn't it?) as part of the cost of
the flight.

You would have been shown the credit card fee before completing the
transaction.

It is not shown until the email confirmation arrives. I guess I should
have read this to know what to expect-
