JET SET PM HIKES DOMESTIC AIR TAX

AIR tax is taking off for everyday folk on domestic flights but jetsetter Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has spared well-off private plane and chopper users any increases.

From April, Air Passenger Duty for those flying economy class within the UK rises from £6.50 to £7, while premium economy or business class users face a hike from £13 to £14.

But the tax for private jets remains frozen at £78 and helicopters are entirely exempt as it only applies to "fixed-wing" aircraft.
