MasterCard prepaid cards 'avoid Ryanair booking fee'

MasterCard prepaid cards \'avoid Ryanair booking fee\'
Ryanair passengers can avoid paying a debit and credit card booking fee by signing up for a MasterCard prepaid card, the carrier has announced.

Spokesperson Stephen McNamara said that when the firm's Visa Electron promotion comes to an end on December 31st, fliers will be able to reduce costs using their MasterCard.

James Hickman, managing director at Caxton FX, said that currency cards continue to be the best way to pay for travel expenses.

He commented: "We work hard to remove unnecessary fees and costs, and we are delighted, that once again, our prepaid currency cards will deliver cost savings to our customers."

Mr Hickman explained that the cards can be used in countries around the world, wherever a MasterCard sign is present.
