Flyglobespan is getting more expensive for Tenerife flights

geedee · 31st July 2008, 11:13

In March this year, Flyglobespan introduced a baggage charge of 3.85 uk pounds per bag. We booked flights in May for our October visit and the charge had increased to 5.00. Looking through their website last night, it has now gone up to 6.00. And that is if you pay online. Wait till you are at the airport and it will cost 10.00 per bag. On top of the fuel increases that will hit flight prices they still insist on squeezing as much money as possible from their customers.
Flyglobespan advertise as Scotland's low cost airline.
I don't think so.

Airlines are just becoming bloodsuckers, who on earth would fly to another country with no luggage - they know people will have to pay!!
