As subsidies and taxes can be used to incentivize and disincentivize behavior, I’m happy about this. Flights have truly large ecologic costs, and flyers need to be aware of that, trying to minimize travel if not necessary. I’m particularly happy that it’s not a flat tax but based on ticket class.

Should be based on passenger mass

  Can't tell if you're trolling. The A320 weights 42,600 kg. A passenger weights 100kg, let's say 150kg with luggages. That's 0.3% if the overall mass of the plane. Wouldn't make much of a difference if you have an extra 50kg.
