Spanish air tax hike prompts Ryanair to take extra cash from passengers
18 April 2012Ryanair customers are to face extra charges on flights they have already paid for because of planned increases to airport tax by the Spanish government.
Customers who already have bookings to or from a Spanish airport received an e-mail from the budget airline yesterday, explaining Ryanair may be “‘forced’†to charge more because of “‘government-imposed increases’†expected to come into effect in the next few weeks.
Ryanair claimed it could not give details of how much these charges will be or when they will be made – but told passengers they will be contacted before any money is debited from their accounts.
