Heathrow to Madrid 15/18 April

BA £33.00+£33.00 plus APPROX extras of £37.60 =£99.70
(Actual extras = £33.70) What is there to estimate when the route and dates are fixed?

BMI £33+£55 with no warning of extras. When total price is clicked the £32.20 is added.

Ryanair Stansted to Girona 15-18 April

£12.99+7.99. Extras of £22.14 added in after selection of both fares.

On none of the websites can I find a detailed breakdown of these extras.

Whilst these, and the additional credit card fees are stated I do find it annoying.

After all I do not find in my local supermarket "Baked Beans 27p with delivery to the store charge of 9p" or at my local garage "Car £6,995" only to get inside to find "Extra charge for wheels £895."

If we have to pay it then, IMHO, I should be included in the basic price.
