Spain's leftist government said Friday it has fined five budget airlines including Ryanair and EasyJet 179 million euros ($187 million) for "abusive practices" such as charging passengers for hand luggage.

Spain's government said Friday five low-cost airlines have been fined $186.32 million for what Minister of Social Rights Pablo Bustinduy said were abusive practices like charging more for hand luggage or reserving seats.

Spain’s Consumer Rights ministry demanded that the five low-cost airlines stop charging additional baggage fees.

Ryanair, EasyJet and other low-cost carriers shouldn't charge high prices for services like printing boarding passes at the airport or sitting next to a minor child, the Spanish government said.
