The federal government is working on a solution that complies with EU law to oblige airlines to pass on passenger-related taxes and fees to end customers. State Secretary Magnus Brunner's credo is: "The taxi ride to the airport must not be more expensive than the flight itself."
The flight customer must be served realistic prices, everything else does not correspond to reality, so Brunner continues. In this way, awareness of environmental protection can also be created. "Specifically, I would like to prevent 9,90 euro tickets, because these enticing offers do not represent the real flight costs!"
He said he had targeted the implementation of true cost pricing for flights by the end of 2022. A concrete model will be developed over the summer, while the parliamentary process is planned for autumn. "At the same time, we are continuing to fight at the European level to bring about a European solution for a common system."
