Every hour European governments lose out on €4 million in aviation taxes
The aviation sector benefits from unjustified tax exemptions that, if left unaddressed, will rise in value by 38% in the next three years.
We really need to stop subsidizing climate change. Planes and animal farming are obvious ones.
And that's total BS. I enjoy cheap flights as much as anyone but this is partly the reason trains aren't competitive.
So you don't fly?
As little as possible, but as an international family, still too much for sure. I also don't really enjoy flying these days, makes me very anxious, so another reason to avoid it.
What reason is there for not taxing kerosene? Do we not tax gas or something? It's just so arbitrary.
Flights are taxed enough. How about closing one of the two parliaments and use the saved money instead?
Not travelling between two parliaments will also help the climate.
