Link Article - Telegraph Air Passenger Duty campaign

BAR UK and its airline members object to the re-structured and increased APD rates that came into effect on 1st November 2009, and which are increased yet again in November 2010.

A series of four charging bands, based on distance flown (this is estimated as the distance between London and the capital city of any other country) forms the basis of APD as set out below.

  • Band A 0 - 2000 miles
  • Band B 2001- 4000 miles
  • Band C 4001 - 6000 miles
  • Band D 6001 + miles

The table below shows what rates will now apply this year and next.

 

Band and approximate distance in miles from London In lowest class of travel, normally: Basic Economy Class Reduced Rate) In all other classes*, normally Premium Economy Class Business Class First Class(Standard Rate)
  To:
31 Oct 2010		 From:
1 Nov 2010		 To:
31 Oct 2010		 From:
1 Nov 2010
Band A
(0-2000 miles)		 11 12 22 24
Band B
(2001-4000)		 45 60 90 120
Band C
(4001-6000)		 50 75 100 150
Band D
(6000+)		 55 85 110 170

 

* However, if only one class of travel is available and that class provides for seating in excess of 40 inches, then the standard (rather than the reduced) rate of APD applies
