Both guns blazing with a tidbit title that doesn't bear any resemblance to the truth

The review is of the PERSONAL taxation level as applied to expenses paid to both flight crew and cabin crew whilst down route. Currently the HMRC taxes down route subsidies at 18% as this money is to be spent in foreign countries for food, drinks, taxis etc.

It has been reviewed many times before and many airlines have had to do it at the INDIVIDUAL level. Nothing whatsoever to do with the airline 'taking a hit'.

Good journolistic title though
