Spain's National Institute of Consumers, which reports to the Health Ministry, has requested that the public prosecutor's office takes action against Ryanair for its practice of not allowing Spanish children to fly without photo identification.
Under Spanish law, under-14s are permitted to travel providing that their Family Record Book - an official document containing details of parents and offspring - is presented. Ryanair, however, refuses to allow passengers to fly if they do not produce either a passport or a national identity card.
Etelvina Andreu, director of the National Institute of Consumers, described the company's practice as "completely illegal."
Ryanair, however, argues that they are "an Irish company," and that the rules are "in its terms and conditions."
