Using credit cards overseas

One of those annoying little habits that credit cards employ is the charges they apply when you use your credit card abroad, even though it costs them nothing in reality to account for this foreign expenditure, you are charged as if you used a bureau de change to exchange your money for local currency.
Did you know that some credit cards do not charge foreign transaction fees when you use them abroad? It's one of those things you take for granted nowadays, but some cards such as the Post Office credit card and Nationwide have now waived transaction fees. Other providers such as The Co-operative Bank and Abbey have decided to follow suit, no doubt any others may join in this particular trend.
There are web sites available which will help you to Compare credit cards to make sure you are getting the best deals. Remember to not only consider the interest rate, the minimum payments and the transfer deals, but also to consider the charges that may be applied when you use your card abroad or for transactions in a foreign currency on the internet for instance.

End of the line for cheap flights?

Cheap flights are not a stand-alone product in the same way that ‘buy one get one free’ (or ‘BOGOF’) is not a stand-alone product, it is an add-on. Cheap flights can only exist alongside a healthy travel industry that is selling plenty of prime-priced products.
The decline of the travel industry, reduced profitability and rocketing fuel prices will no doubt put severe strain on cheap flight availability. Ryanair have already announced an 85% drop in profits and is predicting a loss or at best a break-even scenario at the end of the year. The blame is being firmly put at the feet of rising fuel costs, but is probably also attributable to a lack of spending and other credit crunch issues affecting people’s decisions to buy flights.
