It’s no longer news the fact that British Airways is going to charge passenger for chosing their seat, however I just had this funny thought just now about it going through some old headlines regarding this issue which states that a family of 4 (2 adults + 2 children) can face charges of £80 (if […]

The Hard Drive Has Crashed :-)
