Today, the European Commission opened a rule-breaking procedure against the Spanish government for fining five airlines for their unfair hand-luggage pricing practices in May 2024. The overall fine amounted to €179 million. This decision takes place while Spanish courts are yet to give their decision on Ryanair's ongoing appeal of the fine.
