Excerpt

After booking a Ryanair flight through the online travel agency eDreams, the complainant received an email from Ryanair requesting her to complete a “verification process”. She was presented with the choice of either verifying through facial recognition – or going to the check-in counter at the airport more than two hours before departure. The complainant would not have been able to board the flight if she had refused to obey these instructions. She was even charged a small fee for the “verification process”.

    Do people still use travel agencies? I’ve never really understood the benefit of it aside from the convenience of not needing to look stuff up yourself

      Just now I realized that it was a travel agency, if at least it was an online buy, but makes zero sense if you bought it from a travel agency.
