Credit Card Surcharges

Question: Can an airline apply a "sales tax" when passengers purchase air tickets online using credit cards?
Answer: No, it cannot, since, in the Russian Federation, charging any fees on customers who pay for air tickets using bank cards violates the consumer protection laws and entails an administrative fine imposed on such airline.
