  • EasyJet boss Johan Lundgren has hit out at what he calls "illegal" fines imposed on the airline and other carriers over extra charges for hand luggage and seat reservations. Read this and today's other consumer and personal finance news below.

The article from Sky News discusses how Spain's Ministry of Consumer Affairs has imposed significant fines on budget airlines EasyJet and Ryanair for their practices regarding hand luggage and seat reservation charges.

This action follows a broader crackdown on what the ministry describes as "abusive practices" by airlines, aiming to ensure that passengers are not unfairly charged for what should be standard services. The ministry's move is part of a larger effort to regulate the airline industry's pricing strategies, which often include hidden fees that can significantly increase the cost of travel.
