If all fares originating in the UK go up, then competitively it's still
a level playing field for the airlines, but the passengers all pay more.

Air fares going up can only be a good thing. There are far too many aircraft
in the skies already mostly flying people on pointless trips. Only a small
minority are actually for business.

It's a minority at Heathrow (36%) but that small of one.

The amount of pollution from aircraft, both noise and CO2 is
horrendous.

Nanny knows best, eh?

Oh, you don't think its a problem then?

What - a problem that people can afford to travel for pleasure?

And without your permission?

What a problem.
