Challenges Facing European Aviation
Manufacturing issues affecting the Airbus Neo Fleet have slowed the growth of airlines across Europe this year. In other news affecting the industry, France has become the latest European country to propose an increase in airline tax. The plan would see the ‘solidarity tax’ rise across the board depending on the flight’s duration. For example, it would increase from €2.63 to €9.50 for all tickets on European flights to or from France. The proposal has prompted Ryanair to threaten to end services to ten regional airports in France from January 2025.
