Problem for this is that it needs coordination at least on a continent-spanning scale. If the UK decides to tax av fuel but any one of the Netherlands or France or Germany don't, Heathrow stops being a hub airport pretty damn quick, hurting both the economy and the flight options of southern England.
Just like with corporate taxes, countries have an incentive for a race to the bottom, so coordinated action is needed.
