Foreign Transaction Fee's

Just got back from Punta Cana and I used my Disney CC. When I got the statement, I have a 3% Foreign Transaction Fee of the total amount I charge while we were away...
Is this normal. Anyone know which CC's don't charge a fee. We don't go out of the country that often but I think these fee is crazy.

Yes, totally normal. Found out the hard way. My Citi Master charges it, but my Chase Master does not, so I use that one when I'm out of the country.

Call your cc cos to find out and if applying for a new card, just make sure it's not a feature of the card.
