- p_l 3y agoYes, landing fees are public and in most countries are set same for everyone based on type of aircraft and sometimes operations, but not who is flying. They are supposed to directly reflect funding of airport maintenance, thus fees decided based on how damaging the plane is to the runway etc.

- filleduchaos 3y agoAdditionally, there's a whole laundry list of charges you can see on most international flight tickets. For example on my last flight ticket from Nigeria (my country of residence) to the US with United, there are Nigeria-specific sales taxes and airport service charge fees listed as well as two separate US Customs and Immigrations fees, a "September 11th Security fee", and a US transportation tax.
- CaptainZapp 3y agoHere are the charges for Zurich airport (PDF)[0]. It's extremely detailed and I would assume every major airport publishes them. Also, let's just say that landing a heavy plane after midnight gets very, very expensive.
