You can tack this tax to jet owners too, easily charged by airports that receive them and also based on amount used. Trying to make it as equal as possible and de-incentivize excessive flights.
- bilbo0s 7y agoThis is already done for private jet owners. (A lot more fees too actually.) They just don't call those fees a "travel tax". But yeah, the more you use your jet, the more of these fees you are paying. (But like everything, there's probably some level at which they will give you a break on the fees if you are rich enough and always going to the same places a lot?)
- magduf 7y agoHaving a private jet isn't cheap, and of course using any airport will incur some fees, but I don't think it's that much, since the last thing an airport wants to do is turn away the customers that keep it open. The thing with private jets is that they usually are not based in, or fly from, large international airports. Usually, they are hangared at small airports. Those airports simply wouldn't exist without those private jets, other private planes, and helicopters.
