I don't see one hidden charge. I see two very obviously disclosed charges. The two questionable fees are fully disclosed in an easy to read manner and combined, they total about a 33% upcharge over the rest of the transaction. Not exciting for the consumer but it's all laid out for you and you can make your decision whether to buy with every bit of information about the charges available for your review. So I don't necessarily see a problem with this. If you don't want to pay the fees, don't buy a ticket. You get to choose.
Alternatively, some other sites sell something and then provide "questionable fees" that total +/- 300% upcharge over the intended transaction, that are not fully disclosed in an easy to read manner.
I know nothing about TM but I'm assuming they gotta make their money somewhere and that's where they make it. If the fees got too crazy, it should open the door to competitors to take some market share.
At least it doesn't say "Mastercard holders are sadly unable to take advantage of our special "Convenience Fees", please use Visa."
