Why US-France Flights Are Set To Spike In Price

France is planning to introduce significant increases to its solidarity tax (TSBA) levied on the aviation industry as of next year, according to a report from Les chos. The government is reportedly planning to reap more than 1 billion ($1.1 billion) through the increases to the scheme, nearly tripling current revenues, which stand at around 460 million ($508 million). This tax is imposed on individual flight tickets and will make flying from France to the US much more expensive if adopted, as well as to everywhere else.
