A dad who had taken an all-inclusive trip to Spain and paid £1,400 said he was shocked when he arrived at the airport to go home and was told he would have to pay another £270 to get on the plane. The man, who has asked not to be named, was travelling with three others and each was charged £30 to check in and £38 to load their bags onto the flight.
The unexpected extra charges came at the end of a five-night holiday, when the group tried to board their flight home from Palma to Manchester, reports MEN. The 27-year-old holidaymakers said: "The holiday was brilliant and we had no problems when flying from Manchester to Palma. But when we went to check-in at Palma airport on our flight back, we arrived over two hours before our flight, only to be told, 'you have got six minutes to check-in'.
"They couldn't find my booking. The woman at the check-in desk tried to help, but my email address that I had used to book everything with (online travel agent) On The Beach, didn’t work. It kept saying there was no booking available.
