Czech low cost airline Click4Sky announced it has introduced a fee of 250 CZK (about 9 EUR) for airport check-in. Obviously, Click4Skygot the idea from other low cost airlines that have been charging these fees for several months already.

You can avoid the fees by checking-in online via airline’s website. Online check-in is available 24 hours before the flight and closes 35 minutes before the scheduled departure. When you travel with checked baggage, you can still check-in online and drop the baggage at the specified counters.
