APD is in effect
hi all,
Today we now have APD (Air Passenger Duty) on all private jets over 5.7t irrespective of how many seats or if it's a fixed wing or rotary wing.
One thing is the rate that will be charged will be the higher rate, so a flight of under 2000miles will cost £52 per passenger, 2001-4000Miles will incur a charge of £268, for a flight of 4001-6000 Miles the rate is £332 and for the very long flights over 6000 miles the rate is £376.
But he's the kicker, fly from Northern Ireland and pay no APD, yes you will still need to pay the £54 to fly to there from the mainland, but as long as the flight is over 2000 miles, you will not have to pay a penny.
Do people think this is fair or not?
I've tried to find the thread that mentioned this but i cant seem to find it.
