flag The UK think tank Transport and Environment (T&E) proposes a new jet fuel tax to help address a £22 billion fiscal gap, potentially raising £400 million to £5.9 billion annually. flag The tax would start at 9p per litre next year and gradually increase to match road fuel duty by 2030. flag This could lead to higher airfares, as airlines might pass on costs to passengers. flag The aviation sector, which currently contributes significantly to public finances, is already committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
