The article refers to a new fee for plane tickets that was decided upon last year in Denmark. It's quite a minor fee though that is not expected to affect consumer behavior. Trips in Europe will have a fee below 10 euros and flying from Denmark to New York will have a fee of around 40 euros. Furthermore it will only be fully phased in in 2030.
