22 Nov 2024 VuelingVueling: 39.3 million EUR fine over additional fees and non-transparent prices SpainMisleading advertising and pricing €39.3m

In the same package of sanctions against low-cost airlines, Vueling received a fine of 39,264,412 EUR, including for fees for cabin baggage, surcharges for seats next to accompanied children and what the ministry considered misleading omissions in the presentation of prices on its website. The decision could be challenged in court; whether it is final has not been confirmed.

What organisations can take from it

Price components that almost every customer has to pay must not be added later as optional extras.

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.
