Starting from 2012 the airlines operating flights in the United States perceive the European Union, have the rights to environmentally harmful emissions to buy. The prices of the tickets for the long-haul flights may increase by 30-40 euros. Experts expect that this is only the beginning. Minister of Environment of the European Union have reached an agreement to increase fees for airplanes polluting emissions of greenhouse gases to the air carrier. Starting from 2012, allStart airlines whose aircraft or landing in EU airports, have the rights for this purchase.
As a result of the reform, the flights for the long haul flights are more expensive by 30-40 euros per ticket. However, the airlines can avoid raising prices "relatively easy" by the use of "environmentally friendly facilities."
"We aim at the development of air transport, which is a key role for the EU economy impede"established by the European Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas said: "We simply want to prevent the increase of CO2 emissions."
According to the European Commission, about 3% of exhaust emissions on the territory of the EU are caused by air traffic. Starting from the year 1990, the volume of the "Airplane" emissions have doubled. Brussels predicts that by 2020, will also double the index.
The first victims of this measure are small Eastern EuropeanAirlines that are not in a position to compete with large companies. And another area of the victims appear to discount airfare companies now fly low around the world for the unbeatable prices that are unexplained. These prices are sure to grow.
