Spain's new spending money rule could hit youngsters the hardest

Holidaymakers arriving in Spain could be asked for proof that they have at least £85 to spend on each day they are in the country, under new rules and restrictions introduced by the holiday hotspot.

Spanish boarder control may also ask to see your return ticket and proof of your accommodation before they allow you to start your holiday, according to the UK Foreign Office.

But new research has shown that the average UK traveller only spent £75.74 per day - and 18-24-year-olds fell way short of the limit, at only £40.29 each, based on data by financial app Revolut, which analysed the amount its customers got through on last year's holiday in Spain.
