I am an EEA national and my wife and her parents are European Union residence card holders. Can my in laws travel to the UK without a visa?

@Glorfindel "European" should be preceded by "a," not "an."– phoogSep 29, 2018 at 23:36

Only if you're already in the UK or you're travelling with them. In that case they can enter by presenting their passport and residence card.

@Singhjagroop The check-in staff was wrong then. Tell them to check the TIMATIC database, which says "Visa required, except for Passengers with a "Permanent Residence Card of a Family Member of a Union Citizen" or a Residence Card of a Family Member of a Union Citizen issued by Italy to to family members of a national of Switzerland or an EEA Member State. They must travel with or travel to join the national of Switzerland or EEA Member State."– CrazydreSep 30, 2018 at 8:36

@Singhjagroop Also contact the Airline and get compensation, again quoting TIMATIC– CrazydreSep 30, 2018 at 8:38
