News: Consumer group slams Ryanair check in charges
Flights > News > # 1635 (03/01/2008)
Consumer group Which? has claimed Ryanair's decision to charge passengers £2 to use its check-in desk at airports was unfair.
It said travellers were being charged extra for services that used to be included in the price of a ticket, such as checking luggage into the hold and reserving a seat on a flight.
Monarch Airlines started charging £3.99 per bag checked into the hold in November. Easyjet, Bmibaby, Flybe and Ryanair also charge fees for putting bags into the hold. Among these airlines, only Ryanair charges for checking in at an airport desk.
Which? has reported its concerns to the Air Users Transport Council.
