The Implications of the Irish Air Travel Tax

Aer Lingus, Ryanair and CityJet (the ‘Airlines’) are currently endeavouring to persuade the Irish Government to withdraw the Irish Air Travel Tax (ATT), which has applied to flights out of Ireland since 30 March 2009. The Airlines have commissioned SEO Aviation Economics (part of SEO Economic Research) (AAE) to conduct a study on the financial and economic implications of the ATT in Ireland.
