Jennifer Sexton reports on Qantas plans to impose credit card surcharges in Australia. A gasoline retailer, Caltex, is making similar plans.
Qantas is understood to be planning to charge customers a flat fee but it is unclear whether the airline has settled on an amount and whether Qantas-branded cards will be exempt. Qantas dominates the air travel market and its business is heavily geared towards credit card payment.
