In general flying costs a fraction it used to cost say 20-30 years ago. All
sorts of unhealthy regulations to protect national "flag"carriers led to
crazy practices, which usually were punitively expensive. For the next
holiday in May-June I bought a two way ticket HEL<->Hong Kong for 708
euros. Macau->KUL 53 euros. KUL-DPS 62 euros. JGK-> Johor bahru 28 euros and
SIN->Macau 61 euros. Pretty fictional fares a decade or two ago.
Once I bought tickets Tallinn<->Berlin<->Rome and paid 80,96 euros for
EasyJet. It would have been 13 euros cheaper if I had paid by a debit card.
67,96/4=16,99 for each leg in average when paid by a debit card. Pretty
fictional fares a decade or two ago.
