Canadians May Face Higher Flight Costs

The Ontario government has proposed a new tax on aviation fuel, which would increase costs for travellers flying in and out of Ontario and air shippers by as much as $100 million.
A Conference Board of Canada study revealed that up to 5 million Canadian air travellers a year drive down to the US to avoid paying flight tickets. This number is expected to increase significantly if this new budgetary measure is passed.

Both the Canadian Airports Council and Air Canada’s CEO have made it clear that the Ontario government should reconsider, as this new tax would damage the growth of business as well as tourism to the province. Read on for more information about the Ontario aviation fuel tax.
