If you make more than one short-haul flight in a year, you will now have to pay higher rate of aviation tax.
David Cameron plans for tax on air travels. The experts are of view that the tax would effect those 400,000 voters who own a second homes abroad and on an average make three visits per year to their properties. They’ll be hit twice by the proposed tax. Those people who go to visit families living in abroad will also be affected.
Mr. Cameron said that the reason for levying this tax was that he wanted a “greener Earth as well as greener skies”, to protect the environment and the endangered species.
It is said that the money gained from air tax would be spent on tax breaks for families.
We will soon come to know how hard Tory plan will hit the people.
