Vacationer couple in Ibiza: escape from a 3,196 euro bill ends in arrest!
A young couple from Great Britain caused a stir in Ibiza when they fled a cruise ship after refusing to pay an outstanding bill of €3,196. The two vacationers, a 23-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman, had consumed various drinks and other purchases on board the ship and refused to make the corresponding payments, reports t-online.de.
The couple's escape happened around 3 p.m. on Wednesday when the cruise ship docked in the port of Ibiza. Instead of paying the bill, the two hastily grabbed their luggage and left the ship.
Police investigation and arrest
The cruise ship staff immediately informed the police about the incident. The National Police were able to arrest the couple three hours after their escape at Ibiza airport, where they were trying to catch a flight. They are now facing charges of alleged fraud for failing to pay outstanding expenses while planning to fly home, reports mallorcamagazin.com.
In addition to the legal consequences, the two vacationers were left with an outstanding bill, which essentially consisted of unpaid drinks and other purchases during their trip. The case raises questions about the behavior of holidaymakers who avoid obligations to the service provider.
This information highlights the importance of understanding the conditions of a stay on board a cruise ship and paying the relevant expenses in a timely manner in order to avoid unpleasant situations.
