A new travel warning has been issued to Brits as the summer season approaches, with millions of us setting our eyes on a holiday in Spain.
And it all revolves around something called a '£97 rule'.

The introduction of new rules is not a new thing when it comes to Spain, with specific rules in place for some of the country's most popular destinations.
And if you don't obey them you, could quickly find yourself paying hefty fines for breaking local laws.
With more than 15 million UK residents leaving British shores last year for a holiday in the Spanish sun, this new law is also one that we reckon you should pay close attention to.

It's all to do with Brexit and new border rules that were brought in to play following the UK exiting the European Union (EU).
Because of changes, it means Brits are going to have to show an extra two additional documents if they want to enter Spain.
It's all to do with the EU's Schengen Area, with new rules already meaning you could get banned from Europe for three years for not following them.

There are 27 countries in the Schengen Area: Austria, Belgium, Czechia, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland
Now, the UK Foreign Office has issued residents with a warning if they're heading to anywhere in Spain, from Mallorca to Madrid.
Britons have to now show proof that they have at least €113.40 (£97) per person per day during their holiday stay.
This means that a family of four staying in Spain for a week have to show they'll have cash of at least £2,716 to hand.
The Foreign Office has said Brits could be stopped by officials in Spain and asked to prove 'you have enough money for your stay'.

Other rules brought in to play include proof of return to show you plan on leaving the country.
You could also be asked for proof of where you are staying, such as a booking reference.
The Foreign Office says: “If you enter the Schengen area as a tourist, you may need to provide additional documents at the border.
“As well as a valid return or onward ticket, when travelling to Spain you could be asked to show you have enough money for your stay."
