Airport fees in EU and around the world

Hi there,

I was just wondering what you guys are paying for airport fees such as landing, handling, ATC fees etc.. when flying VFR in a small GA airplane like a cessna or piper.
I'm from italy and soon I'll have to consider about making time building and I'm curious to know what the costs are in europe and other countries around the world.
In Italy it seems to be quiet expensive as almost every airport is asking for money and on average we spend between 10-20 euro for every passenger on board + other 10-20 euro for airport handling. I.e. a VFR departure from my airport to another destination with a PA28 1 pilot + 3 pax is costing 66 euro (total fees to pay) and I think it's just crazy.
I read somewhere that in USA fees are charged only in major airports.
Are there airports where you pay for touch and go?
What about other countries?
