British cruise guests arrested for skipping onboard bill
Two British cruise guests have been arrested in Ibiza for fleeing without paying their onboard expenses.
They cut and ran, leaving an unpaid bill of £2,685, police said.
They were caught about three hours after leaving the ship at the airport and promptly arrested.
“The couple tried to leave the cruise liner in a hurry with their luggage, declining to pay the cost of expenditure linked to their holiday,” a National Police spokesperson said.
They now face charges of defrauding the cruise line.
Neither the cruise line or the passengers have been named.
They were described as a 23-year old male and a 18-year old female.
Police said the outstanding bill relates to ‘several consumptions’ and ‘various items linked to their room.’
