Carbon Pricing

[wilcoleaks]

Just read a document from a financial institution that quotes the Carbon Tax will affect the Airlines as follows:

Qantas - $110 Million

Virgin - 40 Million

*For Qantas and Virgin a carbon price is effectively levied via an increase in the fuel excise tax on aviation fuel, which is expected to equate with the effective carbon price impost

**Based on $23/tonne

Will that apply to any airline that uplifts fuel in Australia??
Or only Australian businesses?

Carbon price is charged on Domestic Ops only.

Justifies QF code share offloading pax and returning fromAbbaDabba where fuel is cheap I guess?
