Gate Fees for Cabin Baggage in Mallorca: What Passengers Should Know

Airlines may try to charge a fee at the gate if they claim cabin baggage exceeds the allowed size, but that charge is not automatically valid. A court in Palma recently ruled that a passenger had to be refunded after Vueling charged €50 even though the suitcase actually met the permitted dimensions. If a fee is disputed, the airline should be able to show a clear and consistent basis for the decision.
