Good points. Just another tax that will be passed straight down to the consumer. Wonder why no wage growth for 10+ years? Will do nothing for the enviroment. "Better not go on that holiday because of the enviroment "

That's still a fine outcome. If it gets passed on to the consumer then people will take less flights, and hence, less jet fuel will be burned.

Passing the taxes down to the consumer is the whole point.

The tax could be revenue neutral and achieve the same goal.

Also I don't see the connection with wage growth unless you are drawing some connection with employees of the tourism industry.

Hey, at least it's progressive. Higher income folks fly more.
