22 Nov 2024 RyanairRyanair: 107.8 million EUR fine for cabin baggage and seat fees in Spain (under appeal) SpainMisleading advertising and pricing €107.8m

The Spanish Ministry of Consumer Affairs imposed a fine of 107,775,777 EUR on Ryanair, including for charging for cabin baggage, surcharges for adjacent seats for children and persons requiring assistance, refusing cash payments at airports, a fee for printing boarding passes that the ministry considered excessive, and non-transparent price information. The fine was part of a package of sanctions totalling 179 million EUR against five low-cost airlines. Ryanair has challenged it before the High Court of Justice of Madrid (Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid), which suspended enforcement in June 2025 subject to a guarantee; the decision is not final.

What organisations can take from it

Unavoidable additional charges and surcharges must be included transparently in the final price and must be legally permissible.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source (company names until they are anonymised).

Company names are anonymised two years after the decision in a case, in line with the practice of many supervisory authorities. The official sources remain linked.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
